The Central Criminal Court of Iraq (CCCI) in the presidency of the appeal of Rasafah in federal Baghdad has sentenced 15 years imprisonment for a convicted person of working in the so-called “Islamic Police”, a branch of the Islamic State group (ISIS), in the area of Albukamal.
The Supreme Judicial Council said that “a convicted person has confessed in the preliminary and judicial investigations to being a member of the terrorist group of ISIS as working in the construction of explosive devices”.
The council added that he “was promoted and became the official of meeting houses in al-Dora area, he was then moved to the Office of Petroleum Derivatives and became an official of the fuel stations, after being hit by an aerial strike in Syria”.
The Supreme Judicial Council noted that “the court found sufficient evidence to criminalize the convict in accordance with the provisions of Article IV of the Iraq Anti-Terrorism Law No. 13 of 2005”.
