| Aswat al-Iraq: Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki on Sunday ordered that MP Mohammed al-Dayni's immunity be guaranteed, ruling out attempts by security forces to arrest the parliamentarian, according to Maliki's media advisor. "The issue will be left to the judiciary and the Parliament," Yaseen Majeed told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. "What has been reported by some media that Iraqi security forces surrounded al-Rasheed Hotel to arrest Dayni is completely groundless," Majeed added. Dayni belongs to the National Dialogue Front (NDF), which is headed by MP Saleh al-Motlaq and has 11 seats in the 275-member Parliament. |
