Not sure where you get that figure from:
At his death, he was in the midst of a second trial, charged with genocide and other crimes for a 1987-88 military crackdown that killed an estimated 180,000 Kurds in northern Iraq. Experts said the trial of his co-defendants was likely to continue despite his execution.
Not to mention the tens of thousands murdered for no real reason with no trial while he was in power.
