AP , BAGHDAD
A roadside bomb killed three US Marines and wounded two others yesterday in the first fatal attack on US forces since the US trans-ferred sovereignty to an interim Iraqi government, US officials said.
In one of his first acts since taking power, interim Prime Minister Iyad Allawi said former president Saddam Hussein would be transferred to Iraqi legal custody and face charges before an Iraqi court this week -- but will remain in a US-run jail for the moment because his government did not have a suitable prison.
The attack on the Marines occurred at 10am in eastern Baghdad, the US command said in a statement.
