<p>Any decision in relation to the continued detention, transfer or prosecution of
detainees is ultimately a matter for authorities under whose jurisdiction the individuals
are detained. The UK opposes the death penalty in all circumstances, as a matter of
principle. We have human rights concerns relating to the trials in Iraq’s domestic
courts of Iraqi nationals suspected of support for Daesh: we regularly raise these
concerns, including our opposition to the death penalty, with the Iraqi authorities.</p><p>The
UK will continue to work closely with international partners in addressing the issues
associated with foreign terrorist fighters and in the pursuit of justice of those
who have participated in terrorism overseas.</p>
