14 Iranian prisoners extradited from Iraq

Tehran, IRNA – Iran’s deputy justice minister for international affairs Askar Jalalian has said that fourteen Iranian prisoners held in Iraq were extradited from the Arab country.

Jalalian said on Monday that since the implementation of the extradition agreement signed between Tehran and Baghdad, the seventh group of Iranian inmates detained in Iraqi prisons were repatriated to the country from the Mehran border in Ilam province.

Following efforts by the Iranian Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the consulate general in the Iraqi capital city of Baghdad, the inmates were repatriated and handed over to Iranian authorities to serve their prison terms, he added.

He noted that a number of other Iranian prisoners detained in Turkish and Armenian prisons will be extradited to the country by the end of autumn.
