Raghad"s sister, Rana Hussein was married to Hussein Kamel"s brother Saddam Kamel who suffered the same fate. On July 2, 2006, the government of Iraq national security advisor Muwaffaq al-Rubaie declared that Raghad and her mother Sajida Talfah were wanted because they supported the insurgency in Iraq. Her exact location however has not been disclosed.
On 30 December 2006 Saddam Hussein was executed in Iraq.
Prior to the execution Raghad asked for her father"s body to be temporarily buried in Yemen, until coalition forces are expelled from Iraq. In August 2007 the international police agency Interpol announced that it had circulated an arrest warrant for Raghad on suspicions that she and her aides had been assisting the Insurgency in Iraq.
These suspicions are reflected in an August 2014 article in Spiegel Online, which proposes the title "Terror Godmother". The article reports that, while living in opulence in Jordan, her fortune in the double-digit millions is used to support the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, with the ultimate goal of returning to avenging power in Baghdad.
Earlier in June, Fox News Channel had quoted such an intention expressed in an interview given by Raghad.
