The Electoral Commission defies the Iraqi parliament

- 1 Hour Ago

The political stances in Baghdad coincided a day after the Iraqi parliament passed an amendment to the election law that requires the Electoral Commission to manually count and count. The Commission rejected the new law and decided to appeal it. At the same time, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, the investigation of the explosion of weapons cache in one of the Husayniyat in Sadr City, east of Baghdad yesterday, and held «outside the security services» legal and judicial responsibility.

The Iraqi political scene seemed more complicated than ever before. The Iraqi judiciary began to put the election commission on the table and to withdraw the powers of the judicial committee competent to hear appeals under the Third Amendment Law of the Elections Law. "The Judicial Council has decided to form a committee from the head of the public prosecution, the head of the Judicial Supervision Authority and one of the judicial supervisors to immediately move to the Electoral Commission building in preparation for the implementation of the task assigned to it," the Supreme Judicial Council's spokesman, Judge Abdul Sattar Birqdar, said in a statement.

On the other hand, the Electoral Commission rejected an amendment to the electoral law issued by the parliament yesterday, including the cancellation of results abroad, and force the Commission to conduct the counting and sorting manually under the supervision of a judicial committee commissioned. According to a statement issued by the Board of Commissioners that the Commission will use its legal right to appeal the third amendment to the electoral law, the Federal Court, because it contains constitutional violations, and in contradiction with the law of the Commission.

 

The Federal Court has received previous appeals from the Commission and the Presidency of the Republic on the decisions issued by the government and parliament, but have not responded to them so far.

The positions of the political blocs, especially the Kurdish ones, varied over the new law. While six Kurdish forces supported the amendment of the parliament, joining Arab parties such as the "state of law", "patriotism", "decision" and "victory", the two main Kurdish parties completely rejected the law and declared their intention to challenge it. "Al-Fath" is conservative about the law, but without declaring the appeal.

On the other hand, and «on the background of the crime of storing ammunition in a densely populated area of Sadr City from unauthorized parties, which led to the explosion and the deaths of innocent civilians», «the Prime Minister and the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces orders immediate to the Ministry of Interior to investigate the incident, And take deterrent legal action against the perpetrator of this crime ».

A statement issued by the office of Abadi said yesterday that he authorized the security forces to launch "large-scale search campaigns inside and outside cities to confiscate arms and ammunition stores belonging to bodies outside the responsible security services, and to hold them responsible for the legal and judicial, and to prevent any weapon outside the state, To the risk of being held accountable by law. "

A storehouse of equipment and weapons exploded inside Husseiniyah in Sadr City, leaving dozens dead and wounded, and led to the demolition of about 15 houses in the vicinity of Husseiniya. No one claimed responsibility for storing the weapons, nor did the security services charge them. The sources confirm that the weapons belong to one of the armed factions active in the city, while other sources indicated that the weapons belong to the organization of the "Saraya peace" of the Sadrist movement, but the leader of the movement, Moqtada al-Sadr immediately issued a statement confirming the formation of a commission of inquiry into the causes of the incident.

The Supreme Judiciary: Canceling the results of the elections is not our prerogative and those who claim to falsify provide evidence

The Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) said on Tuesday that the cancellation of the election results is not its prerogative, calling on those who claim falsification of the results to submit evidence.

The Council said in a statement received by "Al-Ghad Press" a copy of it, that "the jurisdiction of the judiciary of the elections is determined by the text of Article (8) of the Electoral Commission Law No. 11 of 2007 and its summary in the event of the conviction of those who participated in the elections, The Board of Commissioners, whose decision is either positive or negative, according to the evidence provided by the complainant. If the complainant is not satisfied with the decision issued by the Board of Commissioners, he shall challenge it before the Electoral Commission under Article 8. Within 10 days from the date of referral of the appeal And this method to object to the election results is the only method provided by the law of the Electoral Commission No. 11 of 2007 and can not be bypassed to another method because there is no legal basis for the judiciary based on him in that " .

"There is no provision in the law that gives the judiciary the authority to take a general decision to cancel certain results either inside or outside Iraq as required by some, as there is no provision in the law giving the judiciary authority to ask the Commission to re-calculate a certain percentage of the election results." 

He added: "As is known to all that the judiciary issued decisions based on texts in the law allows him to issue a decision in a certain direction and without these texts can not take an absolute decision based on information is circulated in the media or just to satisfy a certain wish with reference to the House of Representatives is the law Article (5) of this amendment stipulates the cancellation of Article (38) and that the process of counting and counting using the acceleration of electronic results and thus the House of Representatives canceled under this amendment the process of manual counting and sorting " .

As for the allegations of forgery, he stressed that Article 8 of paragraph 1 of the Electoral Commission Law No. 11 of 2007 provided for the "exclusive authority" of the Board of Commissioners regarding the referral of any criminal case to the competent authorities if there is evidence of misconduct in the fairness of the electoral process. All respect this legal text and apply it strictly and not be allowed to anyone who was violating it. " 

He added that "in the event of a complaint of forgery attributed to the Board of Commissioners, this requires the review of the alleged to the competent investigating court to provide evidence to prove the existence of forgery and attributed to the person who did it and then take the appropriate decision on the person who committed the crime of forgery in accordance with the provisions of the Penal Code Which is punishable either by imprisonment or imprisonment for the perpetrator of the crime. "

He explained that "the number of complaints submitted to the Board of Commissioners regarding the objection to the election results amounted to (1881) complaints either appeals to decisions issued in those complaints, which reached the judiciary until 4/6/2018 amounted to (1221) will be resolved during the legal period of (10) days from the date of referral to the judiciary. " 

Between "As for the rest of the remaining appeals, the judiciary is waiting to be referred to it by the Board of Commissioners to be resolved within the legal period, ie 10 days according to the text of Article (8) paragraph VI of the Electoral Commission law."
