Iraq sentences 10 for terrorism
Iraqi authorities carried out the death penalty against ten convicted individuals on charges of terrorism at the Nasiriyah prison in the south of the country, following approval from the relevant authorities. This is in accordance with Iraq's laws that impose the death penalty for crimes related to terrorism and murder. The prison is known as "The Whale" because some Iraqis believe it is impossible to leave it alive. Iraqi courts have issued hundreds of death sentences against those convicted of terror groups, despite human rights criticisms regarding the legitimacy and speed of such rulings. Iraqi prisons, especially after the transfer of hundreds of suspected ISIS members from Syria, are witnessing significant overcrowding, with many prisoners awaiting execution.
