Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) MP, Faris al-Sinjari, of the Iraqiya Slate mentioned that “The political blocs will discuss the files intended to be presented during the investigation session of the Premier, Nouri al-Maliki, in the parliament.”

He stated to IraqiNews.com “All blocs have files concerning the violations committed by Maliki,” noting that “The IS and some blocs discuss the violations including refraining from presenting the Commanders of the Iraqi Army Divisions to the parliament for approval, not nominating the Ministers of Interior and Defense and the absence of bylaw for the Council of Ministers.”
