Central Criminal Court of Iraq

Central Criminal Court of Iraq

The Central Criminal Court of Iraq, or CCCI, is the main criminal court of Iraq. The CCCI is based on an inquisitorial system and consists of two chambers: an investigative court and a criminal court. The court was created by the Coalition Provisional Authority in 2003 to handle the cases that were previously handled by provincial judges. Candidates had to be an Iraqi national of high moral character and reputation, a non-member of the Ba'ath party, demonstrate a "high level of legal competence", and sign an oath of office.
