Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) – Member of the Iraqi Fatah Alliance (Conquest Alliance), Hamid Al-Musawi, confirmed on Saturday that the new government headed by Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani will follow up on the assassination issue of deputy chief of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, according to a statement cited by Alsumaria News.

Al-Musawi mentioned that the new Iraqi government will follow up the issue of the assassination of Al-Muhandis with the American judiciary.

Al-Musawi indicated that the new government is seeking to sue former US President Donald Trump for this crime.

Al-Muhandis, along with the commander of the Iranian Quds Force, Qasem Soleimani, were killed in a US raid near Baghdad airport in January 2020.

Regarding the approach of the new government, Al-Musawi said that it seeks to complete what Abdul-Mahdi’s government has accomplished and search for sources of funding other than oil.

Last Thursday, the new Iraqi President, Abdul Latif Rashid, commissioned Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani, to form the new government.
