The Iraqi TV show “In the Grip of Justice” - where victims confront terrorists
It’s 1am in Baghdad, a city under curfew, and the streets of Karrada, a central district in the Iraqi capital, are swarming with nervous security personnel. A blindfolded man in a yellow prisoner suit is led out of a vehicle by heavily armed security officials. Positioning himself next to the prisoner, whose blindfold has now been removed, Ahmed Hassan, presenter of the wildly popular Iraqi TV show, “In the Grip of Justice,” does a standup to the cameras in the middle of the street.
