It's been a while since we've seen a court report. LOT'S more detail than we usually get in these reports - makes it way too long to copy here, but worth reading.CCCI CONVICTS 51: SENTENCES 6 TO DEATH, 6 TO LIFE IMPRISONMENT BAGHDAD, Iraq - The Central Criminal Court of Iraq (CCCI) convicted 51 individuals from May 13 - 19 for violations of the Iraqi Terrorist Law, Penal Code and Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) Orders enforced by the Iraqi judiciary. Three Iraqis were convicted and sentenced to death by the CCCI May 15 for violating Article 406 of the Iraqi Penal Code. Convicted were: Barag Hussain Ali, 18, Ahmad Muhammad Mahmud, 19, Adib Dali Muttar, 19. They were directly involved in the murder of another detainee at Camp Cropper near Baghdad, Iraq. Ahmad Hassan Ali, 25, Jasim Muhammad Hilal, 32 Ali Asama Ail Abrahim, 21 were convicted and sentenced to death May 16 for violating of Article 4/1 of the Terrorist Law. On Sept. 13, 2006 a joint patrol consisting of Macedonian and Iraqi Special Forces raided a farmhouse believed to be part of an insurgent training camp in Baghdad. Inside the house, joint forces found the three defendants dressed in military attire, carrying weapons and guarding two hostages who were blindfolded, handcuffed and had been beaten. During the raid, joint forces found two AK-47's, four magazines for the AK-47's, one Glock pistol, three pistol magazines, two pairs of handcuffs and one ski mask.
