[tim5400]

/ Aswat al-Iraq: Iraqi diplomats of the embassy in Tehran were not allowed to vote, the Iraqi ambassador to Iran said on Friday.

“Iraq’s election office in Tehran prevented the diplomats from casting their votes although they carried diplomatic passports, have legal residency in Iran and work at the Iraqi embassy in Tehran,” Mohammed Majeed al-Sheikh, the Iraqi ambassador to Iran, told Aswat al-Iraq news agency.

He said that his embassy will write a memo about this issue to the Iraqi Foreign Affairs Ministry.
