felony professional Wael Munther showed that Iraqi regulation is apparent and specific concerning stopping candidates or country personnel from exploiting nation resources or process impact for electoral functions, declaring that such actions constitute an electoral crime in line with Article (41) of the Election regulation.
Munther defined to dinaropinions.com that the prison penalty for this crime levels from one to 6 months in prison, further to a first-class of up to five million Iraqi dinars. He referred to that this may also result in the candidate’s disqualification from the electoral race if convicted, as he could then be considered a convicted person.
He added, “those violations represent electoral crimes for which criminal complaints may be initiated if they’re documented or clear proof is provided with the aid of residents or the applicable oversight government.”
He concluded via saying, “protecting the integrity of the electoral procedure calls for severe action in opposition to any try to make the most public finances or authentic positions to serve personal or political pastimes,” emphasizing the need for executive government to shoulder their obligation to deter such violations.
