Iraq will surely prosecute perpetrators victorious commanders' terror

Baghdad- IRNA - The head of the Supreme Judicial Council in Iraq, Judge Faeq Zaidan, said the assassination of the triumphant commanders, top general Qassem Soleimani and Deputy Chief of Iraq's popular forces Hashd al-Shaabi Abu Mahdi al-Mohandis, was an act of criminal and without legal basis.

Addressing the 3rd martyrdom anniversary of the brave commanders of Islam, Qassem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, Zaidan called the Trump administration's measure for assassination of resistance commanders an" earthly crime", adding that Iraq will surely prosecute the perpetrators of terror.

Several high-ranking Iraqi officials, including Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani and Speaker of the Iraqi Parliament Mohammed al-Halbousi, were also participating in the event.

He added the martyrdom of the victorious commanders is a great and irreparable loss.
