1. (U) This is an action request. Please see paragraph four.
2. (C) REO staff met with Babil Iraqi Police (IP) Deputy Chief
Colonel Abbas Al-Gebory on July 26 to discuss the latest effort
on the part of the Babil Provincial Council (PC) and Babil
Governor Al-Musalamawi to oust General Qais Hamza Aboud
Al-Momouri as Chief of Police in Babil Province. Colonel Abbas
presented a letter delivered to General Qais from Governor
Al-Musalamawi. The letter formally requests the General's
presence at a June 27 meeting with the PC and Governor and
states that the purpose of the meeting is to begin the
implementation of the Minister of Interior's (MOI) signed order
removing Qais as Chief of Police (REFTEL) and to commence with
the transition of General Qais' responsibilities over to newly
named Babil Police Chief Adad.
3. (C) General Qais and REO staff had- been verbally informed
that the original order from the MOI had been rescinded and that
General Qais is to remain in his post for at least the next six
months, per the order of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. The
Governor, in absence of an official written order from the MOI,
believes that the original order from the MOI stands.
4. (C) Action Request: REO asks for Embassy's assistance in
quickly procuring official written instructions from the MOI,
instructions which clearly rescind the previous MOI order and
states that General Qais is to remain in his position as Babil
Police Chief.
