Journalist Zainab Rabie received a notice of a lawsuit against her, from Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani .

Rabie, a presenter on Al Sharqiya TV, explained in a post on social media platforms that “the complaint filed against her by Al-Sudani was due to her opinions and criticism .”

She added: “I do not know who advised him to file this complaint, but I confirm my adherence to my views, and I will continue to escalate them regarding the issues of restricting freedoms and rights, violating the constitution, leaks, corruption, failure, and mismanagement witnessed by Al-Sudani’s government and office,” noting that she has great confidence in the justice of the Iraqi judiciary “despite the practices of restriction and arbitrariness.”
