Supreme Federal Court dismisses complaint filed by the Coordination Framework against the largest bloc

Shafaq News/ Iraq's highest court on Thursday dismissed the complaint lodged by the Coordination Framework to challenge the Sadrist movement's status as the largest bloc in the Iraqi parliament.

A judicial source told Shafaq News Agency that the decision of the Supreme Federal Court infers that the Sadrist bloc is the largest bloc in the legislative body.
