Saddam Hussein's lawyer is set to file a suit for war crimes against Britain at the International Criminal Court in The Hague, the news agency AFP said.
Veteran French lawyer Jacques Verges says the lawsuit is on behalf of "the families of prisoners of the coalition in which Britain participates".
"The reality of torture and systematic abuses of the dignity of Iraqi prisoners, sometimes followed by murders, both by US and British troops is no longer in question," the text of the complaint reads.
Mr Verges has been dubbed the "devil's advocate" after representing the Nazi war criminal Klaus Barbie and Carlos the Jackal in the past.
The 80-year-old lawyer has also represented former Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic.

I think we all know why he's trying this on with Britain and not the US. Everyone knows were the softest country in the world now. I do think its funny that it just happens to be a French lawyer too
