State of Law Representative: It is not possible to proceed with the article that allows the marriage of minors in the Personal Status Law
Hussein Faleh:
The Parliamentary Legal Committee has identified the categories excluded from the General Amnesty Law, and while it revealed an amendment to a legal article in the General Amnesty Law, a representative from the State of Law Coalition confirmed that it is not possible to proceed with the article that allows the marriage of minors by amending the Personal Status Law in the House of Representatives.
Member of the Legal Committee, MP Mohammed Jassim, told Al-Zawraa: The amendment to the general amnesty law will be for one legal article related to defining affiliation to terrorist organizations, i.e. knowing the person who belongs to terrorist organizations. He explained that if it is proven that the person belongs to terrorist organizations, then this person is excluded from the amnesty. He added: The categories excluded from the general amnesty law are people accused of terrorist acts, human trafficking, crimes against state security, embezzlement of funds, etc., all of them are excluded from the amnesty. He stressed that the amendment to the general amnesty law was only on the definition of affiliation. For his part, MP Jassim Al-Moussawi, from the State of Law Coalition, said in an interview with Al-Zawraa: There are a group of laws that can be amended, such as the Personal Status Law. He stated: There are very important laws that can be amended, as these laws will be passed in their final form so that they are accepted by everyone and meet the desires of Iraqi society, especially the Personal Status Law, such as the marriage of minors. He continued: We cannot proceed with the article that allows the marriage of minors because Iraqi law criminalizes the marriage of minors, so amendments must be made to this law. Earlier, member of the Parliamentary Legal Committee, Raed Al-Maliki, said in an interview with “Al-Zawraa”: The reasons for proposing the amendment to the Personal Status Law are that there is a law that must be issued based on the provisions of the constitution, which is what Article 41 of the Iraqi constitution stipulates that Iraqis are free to choose their personal status according to their beliefs, sects and choices, and this is regulated by law. He added: We always hear that there are laws stipulated in the constitution that have not been enacted yet, and therefore when we move to legislate such an important law, especially since it relates to an important, basic and personal freedom, which is the freedom of every Iraqi to choose his personal status law, and it is our duty to legislate the laws, especially those stipulated in the constitution. He pointed out: The reasons The reasons for amending this law are some constitutional and others related to the problems that this amendment solves, because there are many problems that occur under the current law that have no solution, as some of the problems are social and some may be religious, given that violations exist in the law and the citizen finds himself between the rule of law and the rule of Sharia, and the issue is related to honor and rights, and therefore it was necessary to submit this amendment. He explained: The other issue is the time, as there are always problems with it because whenever the law is presented, some people ask why it was presented at this time. If it is presented at the beginning of the parliament’s work, it will be said that the parliament is at the beginning of its work and presented such a law, and if it is presented at the end of the parliament’s work, some will say that it is an election campaign for the purpose of gaining votes and the like, and as a result there is always a problem with the time. He added: I believe that the best time to introduce the law is now, which is relatively far from the elections, and at the same time it came after a series of laws that the House of Representatives had relatively succeeded in legislating, the last of which was the law voted on on the day this proposal was included, which is the amendment to the staffing law that solved the problems of more than 400,000 Iraqi employees. He pointed out: The controversy surrounding the amendment to the law is unjustified and its reasons are known. He continued: We welcome the decision of the Coordination Framework forces to support the proposal to amend the Personal Status Law, which gives Iraqis the freedom to adhere to their personal status according to the current law or choose to apply the provisions of Islamic law, and we appreciate the efforts of everyone who sought and defended the proposal, and we promise to continue working with our fellow representatives to approve this proposal.[/size]
