Lalezar: One year on, Lahur Sheikh Jangi's trial remains stalled
Jangi, a Kurdish lawmaker and former PUK co-president, is still detained with his brother Polad and other defendants. His lawyers want the Kurdistan Region Court of Cassation in Erbil to review the case, saying the Sulaimani court is influenced by politics. The legal battle over which court should hear the case is now central to the story.
