PSM’s armed wing expels 11 following Baghdad brawl
Shafaq News- Baghdad
Saraya al-Salam, the military wing of Iraq’s Shiite National Movement led by Muqtada al-Sadr, on Sunday disavowed 11 individuals after a video surfaced online showing a scuffle inside a Baghdad government building.
Four of the repudiated members are sons of Ismail Hafez al-Lami, known as “Abu Darra,” a former PSM figure. The group underscored that the move was taken to preserve its reputation, calling on Iraqi security forces to take legal action against anyone involved.
