AND HE DOESN'T GET THE 25 MILLION DOLLARS

So much for family loyalty.

Saddam Hussein was nabbed in December after a relative who was one of his most trusted bodyguards ratted him out to U.S. troops, a new report says.

The man who led American G.I.s to Saddam's dirty bunker on a farm near his hometown of Tikrit, Iraq, was Mohammed Ibrahim Omar al-Musslit, a trusted relative known to Iraqis as "the fat man," the BBC says in a report to be broadcast tonight.

Musslit gave the secret away quickly after being arrested and interrogated by U.S. forces, the British TV network says...

Musslit was arrested in Baghdad and flown to Tikrit, where he broke under a few hours interrogation, spilling all he knew.

"He was then made to point out the remote farm where Saddam Hussein was hiding," the BBC says...

Because Musslit did not volunteer the information, he will not get the $25 million reward for Saddam's capture.
