AMMAN, Jordan (Reuters) - Saddam's Hussein's defense lawyers based in Jordan said Wednesday that death threats had forced them to abandon a planned visit to Baghdad to support the ousted Iraqi leader.

Mohammad Rashdan, coordinator of a 21-strong defense team, said ``the threats we are getting from Iraqi officials who say they will tear us to pieces'' are the reason preventing a trip to Baghdad.
