Cairo - Former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein spends his day in prison either under interrogation or sleeping and cleaning his cell, the London-based daily newspaper al-Sharq al-Awsat said on Tuesday.
The newspaper quoted a press officer of the Iraqi National Council (INC) as saying there was also a picture of US President George W Bush on his cell wall.
The source was quoted as saying that Saddam was held at the Radwaniyah detention centre where opposition figures were tortured when the dictator was in power.
Saddam "seems to be cooperating and has given important information" to his American interrogators, the unnamed official was reported to have said.
When he was not under interrogation he spends most of his time cleaning his cell, including the toilet, the source said.
Saddam was captured by US forces near his home town of Tikrit on December 13. Other captured members of his former regime like vice president Taha Yassin Ramadan, prime minister Tarik Aziz and Saddam's personal secretary Abed Hammoud are being held at the Abou Gharib prison in Baghdad and Um al-Qasr prison in the southern region of Basra. - Sapa-DPA
