An Iraqi criminal court on 23 December 2021 handed death sentences to three people accused of having a hand in a terrorist bomb attack that targeted southeastern Iraq earlier this month, the country’s Supreme Judicial Council announced.
The sentence was handed to the alleged suspects by Dhi Qar criminal court for their “participation in detonating motorcycles equipped with explosives in Basra's al-Jumhuriya neighborhood which led to the death and injury of a large number of civilians.” 
The statement added they were sentenced in accordance with Article Four of 2005 Counter-Terrorism Law which states "anyone found guilty of committing a terror offense is given the death sentence, with life imprisonment given to those who assist or hide those convicted of terrorism."
An explosion struck Basra's city centre on 7 December, killing four civilians and injuring  four others.
