Baqir Jabr Al-Zubeidi (Arabic: باقر جبر الزبيدي, romanized: Bāqir Jarb al-Zabīdī; born 1946), also known as Bayan Jabr Solagh (Arabic: بيان باقر صولاغ, romanized: Bayān Bāqir Sūlāġ), is an Iraqi politician and former commander of the Badr Brigades who served as the Finance Minister of Iraq in the government of Nouri al-Maliki.
He is also a senior member of the Shi'a United Iraqi Alliance as well as a leader in the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI).
[citation needed] Born in 1946 in the Maysan Governorate, Jabr became a Shi'a activist while studying engineering at Baghdad University in the 1970s.
He escaped to Iran amid former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's crackdown on Shi'a political groups and joined the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI).
Under Jabr's control, the Interior Ministry in 2006 was accused by the United Nations human rights chief in Iraq, John Pace, of executing and torturing to death hundreds of Iraqis every month.
