Iraq must prosecute Soleimani killers, Iranian officials say

IRAQ must identify and bring to justice those who killed Iranian Quds Force commander General Qasem Soleimani, human rights officials said following a meeting on Tuesday.

The two nations pledged to work together to prosecute those behind the January 2020 drone attack which also killed Popular Mobilisation Forces leader Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis.

Iraqi Justice Minister Salar Abdul Sattar Muhammad was in Tehran for talks with Iran’s Human Rights Office general secretary Kazem Gharibabadi.
