Iraq demands Qatar hand over Vice-President Hashemi

Iraq has demanded Qatar hand over its fugitive Vice-President Tariq al-Hashemi after he began what the emirate described as an "official visit".

Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister Hussein al-Shahristani said Qatar hosting a wanted person was an "unacceptable act" and that it should "return him to Iraq".

Mr Hashemi had been holed up in Iraqi Kurdistan since December, when he was accused of financing death squads.

He has denied the charges and insisted he has constitutional immunity.

"There has not been a judicial decision against me from any court, and the demand does not respect Article 93 of the constitution, which provides me with immunity," he told the AFP news agency on Monday.
