| (VOI)-The Iraqi Islamic party on Sunday announced it evacuated its Mosul offices in response to the Prime Minister’s call for political parties and movements to leave state properties. “The Iraqi Islamic Party (IP)-Ninewa branch evacuated its headquarters in response to the order issued by the Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to leave government properties in Mosul ”, IP statement received by Aswat al-Iraq-Voices of Iraq(VOI) said. The Sunni Islamic party led by Vice president Tareq al-Hashemi is a major component in the Iraqi Accordance Front (IAF) bloc, which holds 44 out of the parliament’s total 275 seats. Last week, the Iraqi Premier called for political parties and movements to leave the government properties in Mosul and assigned the Interior Ministry to fulfil the order in ten days. The announcement pointed out “the party evacuated four headquarters across Ninewa province areas and would leave the rest of properties in due time”. The evacuation order coincided with a major offensive codenamed UM al-Rabeen(Mother of Two Springs)that has launched by the government to impose the rule of law in Ninewa. |
