Sistani the only person can dissolve IMIS, not Abd al-Mahdi: Hassan al-Ka’abi
That’s certainly one approach to the situation...
[THEBAGHDADPOST] Ali al-Sistani is the inly person capable of dissolving the Iran-backed militias in Iraq and Syria, dubbed as al-Hashd al-Sha’abi (Popular Mobilization) in Iraq - said head of Badr parliamentary block, Hassan al-Ka’abi on Tuesday.

Ka’abi comments followed the decision of Prime Minister Adil Abd al-Mahdi to annex IMIS murderous Moslems to the security institute, saying it is useless.

"IMIS consists of armed faction and maintaining it through military and ideological training is a must, to remain a strong power," al-Ka’abi said, adding that IMIS is an integral part of the resistance project which is under the control of Tehran and Najaf.

He added that the reason of forming the militia still exists, and ending its mission will not happen unless the Shiite Marja, led by Sistani, ordered its dissolving, not any body else, according to Ka’abi.

Abd al-Mahdi issued on Monday a decree heavily curbing the powers of IMIS, forcing them to further integrate into the country's formal armed forces.
