Baghdad: The Central Investigative Court specializing in drug-related cases announced today the issuance of a series of decisive judicial rulings that led to the dismantling of some of the most dangerous local and international drug trafficking and distribution networks. This comes as part of ongoing efforts to strengthen community security and combat organized crime.

According to National Iraqi News Agency, in a press statement, the official spokesperson for the General Directorate of Drug Affairs, Legal Expert Hussein Youssef Al-Tamimi, stated that “the judge handling drug-related cases issued highly precise and strategic decisions based on intelligence information and extensive investigations.
