The arrest of a ring for counterfeit currency in Karbala category "25 thousand dinars"

maxresdefault-500x282.jpg

 

KARBALA, July 4 (KUNA) - The Karbala police headquarters announced on Wednesday that "its anti-criminal detachments arrested a gang of five people who were forging currency between the shops."

"After investigating and gathering information about the suspects, they were arrested and seized with a sum of five million seven hundred thousand dinars [25 thousand]," the statement said, adding that "the defendants are referred to the judiciary to receive their fair compensation and to the owners of shops and citizens cautious of currencies And to inform the security services at full speed in case of suspicion of any suspicious situation. "

It is noted that the currency is a means of commercial exchange and benefit, and the storage of values and a tool for saving, the link between the economy of one country and another, a tool for exchange and accountability. "Counterfeit currency is one of the most dangerous types of fraud and deception and the most dangerous ever, and is in several ways, perhaps the most famous method (camera), and the way (Alknkr) and the way (Kobe Kobe) and the method of (nickgate), knowing that counterfeiting the currency has serious effects on The economy and the sovereignty of developing countries, making it a customer and consumer always without production, industry and development, and to this the major countries seek to tamper with the economies of poor countries.

 What are the types of counterfeiting?

 - Counterfeiting of types There is counterfeiting by handcrafts, counterfeiting using the possibilities of color photography, counterfeiting and computer counterfeiting, and forgery may be partial or complete.

And on the promotion of counterfeit currency, we asked the banker Saad Alwan about how to promote the currency, we replied:

- To promote the counterfeit currency must be the use of some of the trustees of the funds or employees of companies that spend salaries and expenses, while using the reputation of some traders, and senior dealers with banks who have large balances to make them above the level of suspicion, as well as the use of fraud by large transactions, Or hunt for the stupid and simple to pass the counterfeit currency and promote it and this is what happens in Iraq after 2003 by organized crime gangs everywhere, with a little experience and efficiency as well as the weak souls in positions of responsibility as treasurers of funds, banks and banks, ports and ports and border points And the customs and customs, which facilitates the entry of counterfeit currency with drugs and foodstuffs damaged with false dates of manufacture, as well as drugs "Excavair" and industrial and commercial materials, which were subjected to fraud and industrial fraud and change dates of depletion and production, which caused the killing and loss of thousands of innocent people in the genocide

* Counterfeiting images and multiple forms in any of its forms, which have spread in Iraq?

- Alwan: "Of the types of forgery that was common in Iraq, the process of forging passports and falsifying the identity of personal status and certificates of nationality and grant them to people from outside Iraq have become capable of the sons of Mesopotamia and owners of real estate and property at the same time as the number of Iraqi immigrants originals up to 4 million An immigrant at the rate of 3 thousand a day at some point, adding that "a form of fraud in Iraq falsification of population ratios to change the demographic balance ethnically or sectarian motives in the disputed areas.

We can not lose sight of the falsification of real controls to fake rulers, which at one time killed thousands of innocent victims !! "

As for the bribes that Allah cursed and His Messenger, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said when he said: "God cursed the irrational, the merciful, and the infallible. He became a custom in all circles and institutions of the state, starting with inquiries and ending with general managers and with your eyes.

 On the phenomenon of counterfeit instruments, businessman Harith al-Azzawi, expressed his opinion on the statements of the director general of Rafidain Bank about the growing use of counterfeit instruments, saying: "The fact that what he said recently about the increasing use of this type of instruments is a threat to the Iraqi economy as a whole, Referred to the involvement of some official circles of these instruments and access to very large amounts and sometimes reached billions of dinars, using sophisticated technical methods are difficult to detect and distinguish them from the staff of the bank.

"Some of them have obtained certified instruments belonging to official circles bearing the names and names of Iraqi institutions, which caused us businessmen and members of the chambers of commerce a real fear for fear of our savings in Iraqi banks, whether current or savings," Al-Azzawi told Agence France-Presse.

* Through your meetings and meetings as businessmen, what do you propose to overcome such crises and reduce their seriousness?

- We suggest that the government expedite the use of magnetized instruments, which limit counterfeiting and fraud, to hunt down identity forgers. Counterfeit owners often use false identities, also with fictitious names, to help some weak-hearted employees inside banks. . End Ah

Books / Rahim Al Khalidi ...

The African mujahideen says Nelson Mandela, if I had won the price of my struggle to become a mercenary! He was the one who won the title of prisoner of the age, which made the repressive regime at the time unable to soften and bend, and was steadfast towards the ultimate goal, to win the freedom of a people, not a person as we are in Iraq, and thanks to the receipt of the slaughtered more than half of the Iraqi people fighters, In both periods, the executioners! If so, who were the agents of security, intelligence and other repressive apparatuses? Is it reasonable that a thief (a lawyer) sentenced to twenty-five years, on charges of stealing electricity cables and the crime of accuse, became a political prisoner today.

The previous governments, which were carried out by all the wings of the Dawa Party, began with Jaafari ending with Mr. Abbadi, and now the latter's term has ended without the promises of a well-off life. As a result of the search of the handover of the martyrdom of a permanent place to the death, a position that is difficult to uproot, Iraq invaded the organizations, which America trained with the Gulf Arabs revenge from the Iraqi people, and Al Qaeda and its annexes were the beginning. Once the elements were eliminated, ! The most recent of which is the organization of the preacher of the terrorist, who surpassed all perceptions, with his criminal, ideology, and Takfiri methodology derived from deviant Wahhabi thought.

Most of the politicians took office and neglected! And was preoccupied with the projects distributed by the ruling party, which is quotas, provided that do not look at the large thefts, which emptied the budget that if invested correctly, Iraq would have something else, even more than America in terms of urbanization, especially the Iraqi can adapt to any situation, As we see in the rest of the world, and the result was the collapse of all official institutions! The first is the Ministry of Health, which is responsible for the protection of the citizen and his health above all considerations, followed by education and this is the most important detail, and the heaviest weight, to graduate competencies that will lead the country in the future.

The gifts that were distributed to the poets and singers, do not the people need them more than these! And the exemption from the criminals who were stained with the blood of the victims, such as the Fedayeen Saddam, the dagger was poisoned with the back of those who tasted the woes of the rule of the Baath, is not it better to pay attention to the destitute families ?, which take the end of the cities to live for them, because they do not have the strength of the day and they are entitled to these donations, , And the opposite of the opinion to stand and remember well, who answered the call of reference Najaf, to see who are the Almlpin of fatwa? And look good for those who have been given high salaries retroactively, will you find them impact?

It is shameful to see the international press publishing the balances of politicians in Iraq, the amount of money that has been smuggled, and the regulators are silent! As if she had been hit by a mute and lost her voice! Is it possible for him to return the money is originally a joint theft or what? The late Ahmed Chalabi explain the mechanism of recovering these funds ?! The next government has to work in a neutral and transparent manner, and to indicate the size of all the funds that have been deported by all means and means. It is not reasonable that these politicians are rich and their history is known. Most of them were living on donations and humanitarian aid. As soon as they entered the government, Rare known.

So, Maliki is still  in Iran’s pocket. No surprise there. 

Regarding “dozens of political figures escaping”: I thought we read several months ago that passports had been taken away from many of those suspected of corruption so may I assume these crooks escaped to Iran where their passports weren’t checked? 😏

The very moment the immunity was lifted, the military should have been waiting beside the bozos to immediately arrest them. 😬Just my 2 cents.

The Iraqi government appeared to fight corruption rampant in the ports of Basra, which led to the suspension of work in many of them, whether maritime or land ports, has announced the Minister of Transport Kazem Vajan al-Yamami, Thursday, July 05, 2018, the arrest of a fraudster in possession of (117) forged port seals for the work of the northern port of Umm Qasr, the Directorate of the Southern Region of Kirkuk, the General Company of Iraqi Ports, the General Company for Maritime Transport and the Directorate of Kemerk Umm Qasr.

The operation came on the heels of reports from the Gulf, which spoke in June of the existence of what it described as "Mafiyat supported by parties that have armed factions, control the control of port imports in the province of Basra."

 

Al-Hamami said in a statement received by "Iraq Press" that "detachments from the Zubayr police department were able to arrest the defendant (MNA) from the residents of Safwan area and possession of those forged seals with the seizure of a large amount of paper and the books of the company National Insurance, the General Authority for Taxation, the General Authority for Customs and the permit of reconstruction fees and books to address the General Traffic Directorate with government receipts and customs entry data, which take out imported goods and cars

After the completion of visiting official papers to avoid paying taxes, which have a great reason to destroy the national economy of this country dear.

Al-Hamami praised the security campaign which "culminated in the arrest of the counterfeiting which resulted from great efforts through the follow-up of the Basra police chief through field supervision of the director of the Zubayr police department to implement the decision of the judge investigating Zubayr in a qualitative operation carried out at dawn today."

 

 

In June, Khaleej Online revealed in a report the existence of what he described as Mafiyat, which controls the control of port imports in the province of Basra.

 

"The financial resources of the ports of the province of Basra in southern Iraq controlled by Mafiyat linked to parties and political parties influential in the Iraqi government," noting that "the most prominent of these ports the port of Umm Qasr overlooking the waters of the Arabian Gulf, the largest Iraqi port located in the province of Basra In the area of Umm Qasr near the Iraqi-Kuwaiti border, and is managed by the General Company of Iraqi ports, and was founded in 1930, and is one of the most important ports of Iraq.

 

The site quoted a security source in the local police of the province of Basra, which he did not name, saying that "a network of mafias, supported by parties with armed factions, control the control of seaports, especially on the port of Umm Qasr," asserting that "the control of these mafias Not only the sea ports, but the land access in the southern regions. "

 

He added: "The powerful parties share their shares of sea ports and border crossings, and the liquidation and assassination of anyone trying to address them," asserting "the occurrence of armed clashes, and continuously, between these factions on the division of funds."

 

He continued: "The funds obtained by these mafias are estimated at billions, where they operate freely in front of the eyes and ears of the joint forces that supervise the protection of the port. The most prominent of these security services are local police, national security, customs police and counterterrorism. Referring to the "collusion of those leaders with the mafia of corruption," as the source put it

 

The report pointed out that "Iraqi ports are divided between parties and armed factions, each area or platform under the control of a particular faction or party, where they impose duties on imported goods."

 

For his part, says Salman al-Badrani, importer of foodstuffs, according to the report, "Each political party or armed group," noting that "some importers have relations with factions and parties, which facilitates many procedures, as well as the elimination of customs taxes, The other importers pay the fees of the factions and also the customs duties, which affects his work significantly. "

 

He pointed out that "these factions take from him a sum of money in local Iraqi currency and according to the type of goods, and then gives a small piece of paper known as the traffic link, to accomplish the task of the owner of goods to access the port quickly without waiting for long hours or days for the purpose of receipt of goods.

 

He revealed that "many traders and importers prefer to deal with armed factions and parties, especially those who trade with high-priced materials and beverages such as alcoholic beverages, to pass their goods easily, and not to the committees responsible for the inspection."

 

In the same context, the website quoted Hussain al-Rubaie, an importer of auto parts, as saying that "dealing with factions and armed forces is much easier than the official authorities at the port, while at the same time ensuring the importer's goods from the strict inspection."

 

Al-Rubaie added that "the mere payment of money to one of the parties the importer has immunity from inspection of the shipment; because it is guaranteed by the groups that work for those factions and parties," he continued: "The price of traffic link by type of goods and quantity, too, for example if The goods were alcoholic beverages, the price of the traffic link is up to $ 10,000.

Information / Private ..

The Wasit Governorate Council on Friday criticized the deterioration of the electricity situation and the privatization project, stressing that this is a theft of Iraqi money borne by the Ministry of Electricity and the central government.

"Iraq needs 25,000 megawatts of energy, which has not been achieved for 15 years, and therefore the ministry first and the government secondly are responsible for not developing electricity in the country," said a member of the provincial council, Jalibawi.

He added that "in a few months, Egypt managed to achieve self-sufficiency in energy after spending six billion euros on electricity projects."

He pointed out that "the money of Iraq has been stolen and parliament failed to account for the defaulters, where the country has seen for more than a decade of false promises and the achievement of no significant achievement in the field of energy."

He stressed that "the money spent on privatization projects, did not produce positive results, which explains the ministry's circumvention of the citizen to achieve material gains of its own."

"More than 45 billion dollars have been spent on electrical projects since 2003 to this day, but there has been no development, which reveals the truth of the theft of Iraqi funds, and may go to political parties funding themselves and their campaigns with the funds of Iraqis." End 25 n

Iraqis disagree on many things, but agree that they live in one of the world's most corrupt countries. They see themselves as victims of a backward state. Hundreds of billions of dollars have disappeared in the pockets of the ruling elite over the past 15 years. Everything from jobs and houses to water and electricity.

In an article published in the British Independent newspaper, writer Patrick Coburn says popular anger against the political class that came to power in 2003 explains the progress of the movement of the cleric led by radical cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, who is demanding political and social reform in parliamentary elections in May.

However, the low voter turnout of only 44.5 percent demonstrates the conviction of a large segment of the population that nothing big will change whatever form the next government is.

It is impossible to say how frustrated Iraqis who know they live in a potential rich country are OPEC's second largest oil producer, but they see its wealth stealing from their eyes year after year.

Bribe officials 
and tells that he was in the capital of Anbar province , west of Baghdad , the city of Ramadi, and that he met an engineer retired just finished rebuilding his home , which was destroyed in an air raid, and said , "I've done it myself and did not get any compensation from the government."

He added bitterly that some of their homes were largely intact and had received compensation, because otherwise they bribed the officials concerned, and then shouted, "Write that Iraq has no government, they are all thieves."

Traders in the capital Baghdad say they have lost confidence in the government because of its lack of credibility, and because of rampant corruption, they "demand bribery everywhere."

In addition, the volume of services provided by the government even in the high-end areas is very low, and this is evident in the piles of garbage accumulated in the streets as well as the lack of electricity and water supplies.

Young people, "lost generations, can not marry because they have no jobs and no prospects unless they know someone in the government."

Government robberies 
The author adds that strange examples of government robberies have been repeated since a new class of leaders, mostly Shiites and Kurds, took power in Iraq after the US invasion.

One example is that between 2004 and 2005, when the Iraqi government was supposed to be fighting, the $ 1.3 billion military procurement budget disappeared.

A few years later, he said, under intense suicide attacks, police at checkpoints in Baghdad were trying to find car bombs with a useless device costing a few dollars and buying them for tens of thousands of dollars.

How did successive governments escape these blatant thefts? He says, they have been able to divert the attention of citizens to theft of oil revenues by claiming that the war against al-Qaeda and then the organization of the Islamic state is the only important thing, calling for solidarity with the Shiites and Kurds in northern Iraq.

But one year after the defeat of the state organization in Mosul, these excuses are no longer valid. Security is at its best since the fall of the regime of Saddam Hussein, so Iraqis are more aware than ever of the failure of the leadership and the state apparatus.


The curse of corruption is not unique in their country. All countries that derive their wealth entirely from the exploitation of their natural resources do likewise. The members of the predatory ruling elite - from Angola to Saudi Arabia and Iraq - are entering into revenues State and cling to their claws as much as they can.

He explains that the excessive spending imposed by the ruling circles in these countries is notorious, but not the only beneficiary. All these countries have large welfare systems, where a large number of people get jobs or receive salaries despite the lack of work.

Iraqis and Saudis may condemn corruption in ruling elites, but millions of them have a stake in the regime, giving it some stability. In Iraq, for example, 4.5 million Iraqis work for the state, jobs that others would like.

The call by some political leaders for reform and the fight against corruption is dangerous to their political gains, because the networks of corruption and nepotism have long imposed themselves and carried out many powerful people and parties.

Abstract 
The "anti-corruption campaigns" in Iraq, as in Saudi Arabia, are often just one group of wealthy actors trying to replace another group in government.

The system of patronage is the only way many Iraqis and Saudis get a share of oil revenues, and they will resist being deprived of this in the supposed interest of creating a more functional system.

In Iraq, corruption mechanisms work in a slightly different way from any other place because of the role of political parties. "The appearance of Saleh, financial adviser to Prime Minister Haider Abadi, told me that" unless the political system is changed, it is impossible to fight corruption. "

He said the reason was that the parties were using the government ministries they controlled as cash cows and care machines to maintain their authority.

"Corruption can not be eliminated in Iraq, but it can be less destructive, and corruption will remain, but in the future Iraqis can at least hope to get something for their money," he concluded.

Great article.  Let’s hope the people of Iraq rise up and demand better from their leaders.  With the amount of money Iraq makes from oil the streets should be paved in gold and every person in Iraq should be millionaire.
