Fraud - British Journalist May Not Have Been On Iraqi Payroll

UK Mirror -- Papers offered for sale in Baghdad were said to prove the Glasgow MP took millions of pounds for supporting the Iraqi dictator.

But the documents, offered by former Republican Guard General Salah Abdel Rasool, contain obvious mistakes.

A scrawl claimed to be Mr Galloway's signature on "receipts" has no similarity to his real one.

The operation, revealed by the Mail on Sunday, also threw up glaring misspellings of Iraqi officers' names and mistakes in the title of Saddam's son Qusay, also said to have signed the document.

Mr Galloway, suspended from the Labour party last week over the affair, said: "I do not know who is behind this but I have my suspicions.

"It establishes there is a real market in forged documents about me from the Iraqi regime.

"This is evidence of a dirty tricks operation against me."

Mr Galloway is planning legal action against US and British papers which claimed he took millions from Saddam.
