It confirmed parliamentary circles, yesterday, that the amendment will allow the new general amnesty to re-investigate the crimes committed before the fall of Mosul, as opposed to crimes committed after that date.
It considered the last paragraph of the reasons that led to change the perspective of the parliament to amend the law and discussing acceptance in principle after he was rejected in a previous session.
But the other parliamentary parties attributed the changing attitudes of some MPs from the Amnesty Law to the discovery of "dangerous" version that was voted on in September.
The new amendment to include counterfeiters rank of director general or above amnesties in exchange for raising the allowance condemnation to 50 thousand dinars for each day. And it excluded the new amendments kidnappings in all forms of the amnesty provisions.
And criticized the Commission on Human Rights, the committee responsible for the legislation of the amnesty law, an exception kidnappings due to the feet of some of the people convicted on the sale of their property to compensate those affected.
And the voice of the House of Representatives, the middle of January, to accept the proposals of the draft amendment to the General Amnesty Law, in principle, to discuss and vote on the clauses.
A new version of amendments
With the beginning of the new legislative term, earlier this month, the government sent a second amendment to the law of amnesty, despite Parliament's refusal to amend the law early last December.
And it led to harsh criticism from Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi of the Act (general amnesty), to freeze temporarily, although some five months after the legislation. The law provides for its entry into force as soon as the parliamentary vote on it.
He criticized Prime Minister (General Amnesty Law), days after approval, and described the parliament additions to its terms as "criminal."
Ebadi said that "the government rejects this subject and we will give an amendment to these paragraphs." He added, "we exclude all crimes of abduction from the amnesty, but the House of Representatives charged, that does not result in death or permanent disability."
Parliament held an amendment to the crimes of terrorism, which exempted the government version of the amnesty, and its tail requirement not caused death or disability, or the destruction of government property.
On this amendment, Abadi said, "in the event of a terrorist saw a security man wearing an explosives belt he sacrifices himself for the dismantling of the belt, and in the light of the law would be released, because he was not killed or blow himself up"!
The House passed, on 25 August, a general amnesty, which included all those sentenced to death and other penalties except for 13 categories of crimes, including: the terrorist crime that gave rise to the killing or permanent disability, and crimes of human trafficking and all that falls under Title Act (captivity) as termed when takfiri and terrorist groups.
It deals with the law to the kidnappings, which gave rise to the death of the kidnapped or anonymity determination, or cause permanent disability, and rape, and crimes of smuggling of antiquities and crimes of money laundering.
Legal Committee and it defended, at the time, all the amendments made to the draft (general amnesty), citing a copy that includes the government was "very limited categories." Parliamentary Committee added new paragraphs, depending on the terms of reference laid down by the Constitution, according to some of its members.
More than 10 judges participated for several weeks, with the political blocs and parliamentary committees, to put the finishing touches on the general amnesty law.
After 6 days of the parliamentary vote, endorsed the presidency of the law. Which to the surprise of political parties from the presidential rush to pass the law despite widespread objections raised.
Pre Daesh
The MP said Hassan Turan, a member of the parliamentary legal committee, said that "the new version of the Law of the general amnesty given the flexibility of the crimes that occurred before the advent of Daesh."
He explained MP Tauran, in an interview with the (range) yesterday, that "the law will be allowed to re-investigate crimes committed before June 10, 2014," in reference to the history of the occupation of the organization Daesh to the city of Mosul, and a number of neighboring provinces. He MP "if it is proved that the charges were due to a case of malicious or through confidential informant or extracted confessions of the accused by force."
The provisions of the amnesty will not include crimes that occurred after the fall of Mosul, for any reason. The MP Turan that "the paragraph concerning the reinvestigation was reason to change his mind Parliament to vote in favor of the move to amend the law."
He noted a member of the Law Commission that "the amendment has been read for the first time, and is now in the process of discussion within the Commission, and will be presented soon for the second reading."
The seriousness of the general amnesty
But MP Abdul-Hadi al-Saadawi, a member of State of Law bloc, said the bloc "categorically rejects the re-investigation, because they Sada to the loss of evidence and threatening witnesses."
Saadawi said, in a statement to (range) that he "can be a retrial, in some cases, but to return all of the investigation will lead to the release of all the defendants."
The MP believes that the parliament accept the amendments to the amnesty law was "because of knowing the seriousness of the law that was passed earlier House of Representatives, and that he would release murderers and terrorists."
The Supreme Judicial Council has said, a week ago, the central problem of judicial committees of the Council included a 7168 general amnesty detainees so far.
On the other hand he says MP Hassan Turan said the Justice Department did not release only 380 doomed from the moment of entry into force of the law until the day of 01.12.2017.
Turan saw "This is a very small number relative to the expected large numbers covered by the amnesty," adding that "there is a weakness in the release procedures."
And the new amendment to the law of the amnesty provisions, says the legal committee member, said "the amendment included every manager and above in the forgery crimes, but it has increased the purchase of the remaining duration of condemnation from 10 thousand to 50 thousand dinars a day."
He pointed out that "the inclusion of the amendment not to hold the perpetrators of kidnappings in all circumstances and without any exceptions," he said, adding that the amendment provides for the effect retroactively covered by the provisions of the date of 08.25.2016.
Kidnappings
In the meantime, he criticized the dry longings, a member of the Human Rights Commission, the new version of the General Amnesty modifications.
Dry and confirmed, in a statement to (range) yesterday, said the committee "rejects the new amendments." Denying knowledge of the reasons that prompted the parliament to accept the amendments, "although representatives of both blocs, members of the Human Rights Commission did not object then the law as it began."
Considered human rights committee member, he said "the abolition of the inclusion of all perpetrators of the crime of kidnapping, who did not cause damage or disability of the person kidnapped, causing damage to many families sold their homes and all belongings, hoping to compensate the owners of the proceedings and their parents get them out of prison."
And considered the Kurdistan Democratic Bloc member, he said "the inclusion of counterfeiters degree of general manager and above amnesty gives an indication that the article was written specifically to take out some of the people from the prisons."
