This means their cases would be referred to Iraq’s Presidential Council for ratification, after which they will be executed. The website gave no details about the seven, beyond the fact that they were sentenced to death for murder and kidnapping under Iraq’s Penal Code and the Anti-Terrorism law, by courts in Bagdad and other cities and provinces.
