The Rusafa Criminal Court has sentenced the individual known as Hadil Khalid Al-Samarrai, nicknamed "Umm Al-Loul," to life imprisonment for drug possession and trafficking. A judicial source stated that the Rusafa Criminal Court issued a life sentence against the social media personality Hadil Khalid Abdul Rashid, after convicting her of international drug trafficking.
In April of last year, the judiciary sentenced Umm Al-Loul to four months in simple imprisonment based on Article (403) of the Penal Code for the crime of producing and distributing several images and videos containing obscene and immoral statements.
In an official statement, Hussein Youssef Al-Tamimi, the official spokesperson for the General Directorate for Drug Affairs in the Ministry of Interior, said: "The General Directorate for Drug Affairs carried out a specialized security operation that led to the dismantling of a network involved in drug trafficking. Through in-depth investigations and careful intelligence efforts, we monitored the accused (H.K.A.) known as (Umm Al-Loul) transporting drugs with the intent to trade."
Al-Tamimi added that "a specialized task force was formed and she was arrested legally under a judicial decision, and she was referred to the competent court which issued a life sentence against her for drug trafficking under Article (28) of the Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances Law No. (50) of 2017."
The official spokesperson for the General Directorate for Drug Affairs affirmed: "We were, we are, and we will remain the strong arm in protecting the homeland and the sharp sword against anyone who attempts to tamper with its security."
It is noteworthy that the Rusafa Criminal Court sentenced Hadil Khalid Abdul Rashid, known as "Umm Al-Loul," to life imprisonment after convicting her of drug trafficking. The Iraqi judiciary had previously sentenced "Umm Al-Loul" to four months of simple imprisonment in April based on Article (403) of the amended Penal Code No. 111 of 1969 for producing and distributing several images and videos containing obscene and immoral statements.
