Shafaq News/ On Tuesday, Iraq’s Administrative Court ordered the reinstatement of Omar al-Karawi as Chairman of the Diyala Provincial Council.
The ruling, signed by Court President Othman al-Obaidi, annulled the council’s March 24 session that ousted al-Karawi and named Nizar al-Lahibi as his replacement.
Al-Karawi’s dismissal, backed by 12 council members, followed an interrogation session and drew criticism over alleged political interference.
