Greetings,
With reference to your letter numbered 31017 and dated 14/8/1972 regarding
the legal inheritance distribution for the deceased Yaqub Biras Harun Rashti.
The Presidency of the Community maintains a special register for the deceased members of the community
in Baghdad. As for the legal inheritance distributions, they are issued by the competent courts
(Personal Status) based on the request of one of the heirs, and we do not keep nor
do we have knowledge of the heirs' applications to the courts to obtain legal inheritance distributions.
This is the reason for the inability to provide your honorable secretariat with the legal
inheritance distribution for the aforementioned deceased.
