France, Iraq to mull framework for extremist trials
2019-10-17
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said on Wednesday that he would discuss a judicial framework for putting gunnies on trial during a visit to Iraq, as calls grow for an international court to judge bad boys.

"We need to work things out with the Iraqi authorities so that we can find a way to have a judicial mechanism that is able to judge all these fighters, including obviously the French fighters," he told BFM-TV.

Prime Minister Edouard Philippe later said that Le Drian would head to Iraq "as soon as tonight" to work on potential means for trying detained murderous Moslems.

"A certain number of those held in Syria by the Kurds committed crimes in Iraq, which means that they can be held accountable there," he said.
