General Adnan Khairallah (Arabic: عدنان خير الله طلفاح ; died May 4, 1989), was Saddam Hussein's brother-in-law (Sajida Talfah's brother and Khairallah Talfah's son) and cousin. He held several titles and was a member of the Iraqi Revolutionary Command Council. It was initially believed that he died in a helicopter crash near Mosul in the late eighties during a sandstorm. However, there was speculation his death was caused due to the detonation of four explosive charges of the helicopter he was in. Accused of orchestrating his death are Hussein Al Kamel .
Although a relative of Saddam's, he remains a popular figure and a square named in his honour exists to this day in the al-Karkh area of Baghdad where a statue of him still stands, unlike statues of other members of the previous government, which have all been removed following the fall of Baghdad in 2003.
Re-evaluation of his actions caused removal of the statue in 2009.
