Cairo: The political affairs and parliamentary relations committee of the 16th Arab Inter-parliamentary Union (AIPU) conference passed on Wednesday a draft resolution condemning the assassination of Hamas commander Mahmoud Al Mabhouh in the UAE.
The conference, currently on session here, considered the crime as a violation of the sovereignty and security of the UAE and international law and norms.
The motion called for supporting UAE's efforts to bring those murderers to justice.
According to the resolution, the conference holds the view that this criminal act needs cooperation of all countries in order to encounter this criminal gang and prosecute them as existing laws.
The committee also approved a draft resolution backing the UAE's full right to its three islands - Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb and Abu Musa - occupied by Iran and supporting all peaceful measures the UAE is taking to restore its sovereignty over its islands.
The resolution called on Iran to translate its desire to improve relations with Arab countries into practical, tangible deed and respond to sincere, serious calls made by the UAE for settling the dispute through peaceful means either by serious direct negotiations or resorting to the International Court of Justice.
