Iraqi court sentences 4 to prison for promoting banned Baath Party
An Iraqi court has just sentenced four people to six years in prison for promoting the banned Baath Party. The convictions are based on them having banned materials on their phones in Kirkuk (2025-2026). It's a stark reminder of the country's ongoing de-Baathification policy, a deeply sensitive issue that continues to impact politics and society long after Saddam Hussein's fall.
