Today (Sunday), a group of supporters of the Sadrist movement closed the headquarters of the Islamic Dawa Party in the governorates of Basra and Najaf.
A security source told “Okaz” that “a group of supporters of the Sadrist movement closed the headquarters of the Islamic Dawa Party led by Nuri al-Maliki, and some of them were burned as an expression of their protest against what they called the abuse directed by the party to their late reference, Ayatollah Muhammad Sadiq al-Sadr.”
The angry reaction by supporters of the Sadrist movement came after the leader of the movement, Hassan Al-Athari, mentioned in a post on social media that he published (Saturday), in which he accused the Islamic Dawa Party, led by its Secretary-General and the head of the State of Law Coalition, of insulting the reputation and biography of the reference, Muhammad Sadiq al-Sadr, And he is related to Saddam Hussein’s regime.
In turn, the Islamic Dawa Party denied Al-Athari’s statements, stressing that yellow papers and letters have spread recently claiming that pages are affiliated with Secretary-General Nuri al-Maliki or affiliated with the State of Law media and that they offend the great references, and the truth is that there are no pages adopted by al-Maliki or the State of Law You publish such abuse.
The statement added that what is published in this context does not go beyond allegations and falsifications that want to sow discord between brothers, and that we clearly show that all our pages, platforms, media sites, and news centers are committed to journalistic ethics and publishing laws, and it is not our kinetic approach to offend anyone or publish what calls for hatred and hostility.
Al-Maliki sent a message yesterday to the leader of the Sadrist movement confirming that the Islamic Dawa Party did not offend the reference, Muhammad Sadiq al-Sadr, and that what happened was a conspiracy aimed at harming the relationship between the Dawa Party and the Sadrist movement.
Al-Maliki also sent a similar message to Prime Minister Muhammad Shia’a al-Sudani, denying the Islamic Dawa Party’s abuse of the reference, al-Sadr, and calling on the government to intervene immediately to protect the headquarters of the Islamic Dawa Party.
