SULAIMANI — The Iraqi Federal Supreme Court announced on
Sunday (February 6) a decision to temporarily suspend all procedures for the
election of Hoshyar Zebari, the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) candidate for
president of Iraq.
According to a statement by the court, the ruling was made
with the majority vote from members of the federal court.
The decision was reached due to a past ruling to remove
Zebari from his position as Iraqi finance minister in 2016 on charges of
financial and administrative corruption, as well as two other cases against
him, the statement noted.
