Iraqi court suspends Zebari from presidential race

The Iraqi Federal Supreme Court announced on Sunday, February 6, a decision to temporarily suspend all procedures for the election of Hoshyar Zebari, the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) candidate for president of Iraq.

According to a statement by the court, the ruling was made with the majority vote from members of the federal court.
The decision was reached due to a past ruling to remove Zebari from his position as Iraqi finance minister in 2016 on charges of financial and administrative corruption, as well as two other cases against him, the statement noted.
