Threats to pressurize citizens to participate in demonstrations, says Asadi

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) MP, Khalid al-Asadi, of the State of Law Coalition stressed “There are various ways including threats used to pressurize the citizens to participate in the demonstrations.”

He stated to IraqiNews.com “Fear spread in the provinces that witness sectarian demonstrations due to the escalated violence where Qaeda and Baath as well as terrorist groups started to conduct violent activities and even some clergymen were forced to participate in the demonstrations.”

He called “The Government and the political sides to unify their efforts in order to protect Iraqis from such terrorists.”
