[size=45]Yesterday, Tuesday, the High Commission for Human Rights revealed the presence of about 700 foreign women and children with ISIS terrorist organization in Iraq, noting that they were placed in rehabilitation centers after their countries refused to receive them, calling on the government to make great efforts to deport them.[/size]
[size=45]This comes at a time when the Security and Defense Committee in the House of Representatives warned of the danger of these individuals remaining on Iraqi lands, and talked about many damages, the most important of which are social and economic, stressing the need to resolve this file as soon as possible. A member of the Commission for Human Rights, Fadel Al-Gharawi, said in a statement to (Al-Mada), that "there are many families of foreign ISIS members who are present on Iraqi lands after their families played a major role in committing serious crimes and violations, especially during the occupation of a number of provinces in 2014."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Gharawi added, "Some of those acts committed by ISIS were classified as genocide and the others were crimes against humanity."[/size]
[size=45]He pointed out that "the relatives of the terrorist organization's members were initially deposited in designated places," and talked about "many discussions that took place with their countries during the past period, especially since these are not the subject of judicial procedures because there are no charges against them." Al-Gharawi pointed out that "a part of the countries received these individuals, and the other refused, such as Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Belgium, Sweden and other countries, and the people of these countries are still deposited in Iraq."[/size]
[size=45]He stressed, "The statistics recorded by the High Commission for Human Rights indicate that the applicants to the Iraqi correctional authorities are 555 women, in addition to 152 children, all of whom are foreigners and not Iraqis." Al-Gharawi continues, "The countries gave many justifications, including the fear of return, especially since these individuals lived under the control of the terrorist organization ISIS and submitted to its ideas, and they will have negative effects on society, but this is not a justification for them to remain in Iraq." And he believes, "The Iraqi government should have many ways to persuade countries to take over their members who are on our lands, and press for their deportation to their homes." A member of the Commission on Human Rights stressed that "Iraq during this period should focus on the issue of rehabilitation of victims and reparation, and the presence of these people in such a large amount would lead to problems and some social repercussions." He stated, "The time has come to intensify efforts to return these individuals to their countries after years they spent in Iraq." Al-Gharawi explained, "The placement of ISIS children and women in correctional institutions came because there is no controlled place where they can be subjected to awareness and rehabilitation programs only through these institutions." Al-Gharawi pointed out, “It is not possible to keep them in open places for fear of direct contact with civilians and to avoid their negative impact on the rest of society, and therefore a decision was taken to make their presence in private places and not mix with others.” And he added, "The Iraqi state is responsible for spending on these individuals who receive humanitarian services and guarantees, as is the case with Iraqi prison inmates." Al-Gharawi pointed out, “It is not possible to keep them in open places for fear of direct contact with civilians and to avoid their negative impact on the rest of society, and therefore a decision was taken to make their presence in private places and not mix with others.” And he added, "The Iraqi state is responsible for spending on these individuals who receive humanitarian services and guarantees, as is the case with Iraqi prison inmates." Al-Gharawi pointed out, “It is not possible to keep them in open places for fear of direct contact with civilians and to avoid their negative impact on the rest of society, and therefore a decision was taken to make their presence in private places and not mix with others.” And he added, "The Iraqi state is responsible for spending on these individuals who receive humanitarian services and guarantees, as is the case with Iraqi prison inmates."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Gharawi concluded that “the competent authorities in Iraq do not have a solution to this file except by strengthening diplomatic efforts and making direct contacts with the countries of these individuals and applying the terms of the agreements related to the extradition of criminals. These efforts may give a positive indication that pressure may bring results in the near future.”[/size]
[size=45]For his part, a member of the Security and Defense Committee in the House of Representatives, Bader Al-Ziyadi, said in an interview with (Al-Mada), that "the file of ISIS foreign children deposited with Iraqi institutions should end by returning them to their countries." Al-Ziyadi, a representative from the Sairoon Alliance, added that "Iraqi institutions should not bear the responsibility and expenses of these individuals, and that they should be dealt with in accordance with the laws and agreements that they be deported to their countries." Al-Zayadi urged "Iraqi diplomacy to make wider efforts to secure the return of those who, despite not being charged, pose a threat to Iraqi society." He continues, "This file should be resolved at the present time, especially with Iraq receiving meals from those who were in the Syrian al-Hol camp, and it is a fortiori that those who hold another nationality be deported to his country."[/size]
[size=45]The terrorist organization ISIS had taken control of a number of Iraqi provinces in mid-2014, and its foreign members who were killed or arrested in the liberation battles were families whose members were arrested by the security forces after that and dealt with them according to the law.[/size]
