Inside the Sulaimanyah court, a PUK force reportedly insulted and tortured Shaswar Abdulwahid, the leader of the New Generation Movement.
Shaswar Abdulwahid Qadir was brought to the court for a new trial based on a 2019 case without prior notification to his lawyers. Heavy security forces surrounded him during the session, which was adjourned to next Sunday.
Late on the night of August 12, 2025, security forces raided Shaswar Abdulwahid’s house and arrested him without notice. Local and international media reported that his arrest followed remarks he made a week earlier, warning that if the Kurdistan Region did not resolve the salary issue or implement its agreements with Baghdad, serious actions would follow.
