The High Court stayed a lawsuit concerning CEPEP contract terminations and referred the case to the Director of Public Prosecutions for investigation.

The judge found sufficient grounds to investigate claims that former Minister Al-Rawi falsely assured Cabinet approval for contract extensions.

CEPEP expressed willingness to assist authorities and pursue further legal action if deception is confirmed.

Al-Rawi accepted the investigation but did not directly address accusations about his role in the contract renewals.

Any proper investigation into this matter and any questions arising is welcomed.
— Al-Rawi stated in a statement regarding the DPP's investigation.
