In the photo: a senior Iraqi officer involved in a scheme to deceive the US State Department with millions of dollars

Baghdad News -

 

 

A senior Iraqi officer has been implicated in a scheme to deceive the US State Department with millions of dollars, according to a former contractor involved in the scheme.

 
This week, two former DynCorp International employees were investigated at the Alexandria Federal Court on charges of receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars from Fadhil Berwari, commander of the 1st Brigade of the Iraqi Special Forces, to arrange a high rent for a piece of land owned by Berwari near Baghdad airport. .

 
According to the workers' account, the payment was made by the Roman contractor Emil Popescu, who was hired by Berwari to arrange the deal. These details were revealed during the trial of Emil Popescu, convicted of a conspiracy to break the anti-bribery law. Both Wesley Struble and Jose River, former employees of DynCorp, have pleaded guilty to the plot.

 
The plan came in the wake of the US withdrawal from Iraq, where workers were looking for jobs while companies were looking for a piece of land to rent because of the closure of US bases.

Berwari has identified DynCorp as a potential tenant for his plot of land after the departure of the former tenant, EOD Technology, according to Struble, who worked for EODT, which paid $ 124,000 per month to Fadel Berwari under the US Department of Defense contract.

Struble was admitted late this year in court that he left the EODT company to DynCorp and that he and his co-worker Jose Rivera persuaded DynCorp to pay $ 665,000 for the same plot. "I was helping him with anything to make it happen," according to Struble's testimony on Monday, and that Berwari would 'take care of me.' Struble justified his position by paying the high rent because the contract guaranteed more space and the security requirements of DynCorp were more than EODT security requirements. In the end, it was the State Department that paid the $ 5.3 million rent list for the period from September 2011 to April 2014. The role of Popescu was to be a front for Berware according to Struble.

Popescu, a friend of both Rivera and Struble, lost his job at EODT as a contract contractor due to shrinking contractor presence in Iraq and was selected as a suitable person to deal with DynCorp for taking bribes, Attorney General Brian Harrison told the jury in his editorial on Monday. 

The brothers of Berwari's brother wanted to be part of the project but were 'very immature, unreliable, irresponsible' according to Struble's testimony. Popescu received 400,000,000 dollars during his work at Berwari for six or seven months and admitted he was part of the plot early on.

But he said he was upset when he was forced to split the $ 150,000 from the first rent paid by DynCorp to Rivera and Struble, and said he had told his partners in the plot that he would not pay the rest of the bribe payments.

'This happened when there was a change in his heart,' said defense lawyer Bugg in his closing statement, 'that he will not be the man of money for them anymore'. 

Popescu left Iraq in March 2012 after he finished building a camp on General Berwari's land. The $ 400,000 he received was a legitimate salary for his work, Bugg argued. While Popescu's involvement in the scheme of bribery ended early so he would be out of the statute of limitations for five years. And that either Popescu or Rivera and Struble were discovered in March 2017.

But Rivera and Struble testified that the first batch of bribes came directly from Popescu's hand because he was involved in the plot and that the reservation did not show 'he did not wash his hands' of the plot, "Assistant Attorney General Kimberly Pedersen said at the end of her address. 'There are a lot of things the defendant could have done, which he should have done but he did not do.' Bugg considered that many lessons could be learned from the case 'perhaps the US government should not engage in deals with Iraqi officers'.

Law Where did you get this? And the prospects of his legislation!

Murtada Abdul Hamid 
in the process of fighting financial and administrative corruption announced by Mr. Abbadi, and considered it a more dangerous right than the war on "Daash", the Cabinet drafted an important law, is a law from where you this? And sent it to the House of Representatives for its legislation. 
This law is an important and bold step in this exceptional field, namely, the fight against corruption with its political, financial and administrative characterization, and its institutions with great power in the state and society. 
It seems that Abadi wanted to get out quickly from the circle of preparation and planning, to the circle of action, after feeling that the corrupt adults and young, want to void the law of its real content, and turn it into a new game in the dichotomy and deception, and seek to remove suspicions about them.
This unhealthy practice is addressed by psychology, and its social roots are identified. It is that the bad man usually focuses in his speech on what he personally does for the sake of coverage. The thief exaggerates the theft of robbery and banditry on occasion and without it, as well as the loss of honor, the bribe, and all the negatives of morality and human values. 
The articles and paragraphs of the law are generally good. However, the preparation and preparation necessary to pass it and therefore its implementation on the ground, need more care and attention than what has happened so far. The reason is that the existing political system (corrupt from the egg) has been manipulated by its practical practices to make corruption and dealing with it a general culture for large sectors of the society, as well as to be surrounded by laws and decisions, which wanted to give it the status of legitimacy and acceptability. 
Will such a corrupt system, which is heavily dispersed in the civil and military institutions of the state, allow it to see the light, or to take its full range?
Therefore, it is necessary to create a social and political base that rests on it, and provides it with the elements of life, officially by replacing the corrupt corrupt or at least a number of them with national, honest and capable competencies capable of carrying out this law and ready to sacrifice themselves. The Iraqi people, for whom the law was one of its main demands, to involve it in its defense and to monitor its implementation. 
This important law also requires protection and care for the judges charged with implementing it, so that they can do their duty and be retroactively applied, not in the form of a pardon, because corruption is no longer limited to taking direct bribes, But also includes many aspects of the invisible, including the most important seizure of real estate and property of the state in Baghdad and the whole of Iraq, at low prices, taking advantage of their positions or their political influence, sectarian and national.
The ball is now in the court of the Iraqi parliament. Is his collective or even individual conscience awakening this time? Not only to approve the proposed law, but also to find mechanisms to implement it, in partnership with the concerned authorities, especially the Council of Ministers, and relying on legal experts, bodies and teams specialized in combating corruption and eliminating its evils.

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - 
Judges specializing in cases of integrity revealed on Tuesday the mechanism of proceedings in their courts and the reasons for the delay in settling corruption cases, while referring to the issuance of arrest warrants against officials but not implemented.
"The reasons for delaying the resolution of corruption cases are due to administrative investigations and procedures related to non-judicial bodies," the judges told the official judiciary magazine. "It is difficult to gather evidence against corrupt employees who are still in their jobs because they are quickly hiding their effects." 
"Integrity issues are of a special nature. They require an administrative investigation, a report from the Financial Control Bureau and another investigation by the Inspector General's Department, and then the complaint is moved," said the judge of the Integrity Court in Rusafa. 
He attributed the reasons for the delay in deciding the cases of corruption to "the failure to complete administrative investigation procedures by the Office of the Inspector-General, where several months without completing the procedures, and if the obstacle to send the investigation to the Minister's office for the purpose of ratification is often shown to be returned to make adjustments because of grievances" .

"The arrest warrants are noted at all border crossings and airports, but we regret the case of some of the accused who live in the Kurdistan region, the Interior Ministry is approaching the representative of the region as a link between us and the region , Because the court is not one of its tasks directly approached, but unfortunately we do not find a deaf ear. "
"The legal material refers the accused to the criminal court if the crime is punishable by life imprisonment and more than 5 years to 15 years, according to Article 125 of the Penal Code. The charge, which is punishable from 3 months to five years or a fine, "He said.

"The court has the misdemeanors or felonies, Most of those referred to this court are state employees and those who are in special degrees professors and deans of the universities and the court does not consider the account but to charge. "

Integrity judges spoke about the mechanism of proceedings in their courts and the reasons for the delay in resolving cases of corruption, and attributed the reasons to administrative investigations and procedures related to non-judicial bodies, pointing to the difficulty of collecting evidence on corrupt employees who are still in their work because they They quickly hide their traces.

"Integrity cases are of a special nature. They need an administrative investigation, a report from the Financial Control Bureau, and another investigation from the inspector general's office. Then the complaint is moved," says the judge of the Integrity Court in Rusafa. 
He attributed the reasons for the delay in deciding the cases of corruption to "the failure to complete administrative investigation procedures by the Office of the Inspector-General, where several months without completing the procedures, and if the obstacle to send the investigation to the Minister's office for the purpose of ratification is often shown to be returned to make adjustments because of grievances" .
In response to a question on the investigation with the members of the House of Representatives, the judge explains "in the event of a lawsuit against them are completing the legal proceedings in respect of the crime attributed to them, then the court issues the appropriate decision whether to issue an arrest warrant or recruitment until the closure of the investigation and then be submitted to the Supreme Judicial Council To open the House of Representatives in order to lift the immunity of the accused MP, "pointing out that" the arrest of the accused accused before this procedure on the basis of the provisions of the Constitution only after the lifting of immunity by the House of Representatives. " 
As for the grades that do not enjoy immunity, the procedures are completed and then referred to the courts of misdemeanors or crimes according to the legal material of the charge, as expressed.
The judge of the investigation that "the judiciary issues arrest warrants and is not responsible for its implementation, this is the responsibility of the executive branch of the Ministry of the Interior," pointing out that "a lot of orders issued against ministers and agents and did not implement despite the continuing assurances of some reasons due to escape outside the country" , Stressing "the keenness of the judiciary on the implementation of arrest warrants and the existence of cooperation between the Supreme Judicial Council and Interpol International according to the Riyadh agreement for judicial cooperation." 
"The arrest warrants are noted at all border crossings and airports, but we regret the case of some of the accused who live in the Kurdistan region, the Interior Ministry is approaching the representative of the region as a link between us and the region , Because the court is not one of its tasks directly approached, but unfortunately we do not find a deaf ear. "
"The legal material refers the accused to the criminal court if the crime is punishable by life imprisonment and more than 5 years to 15 years, according to Article 125 of the Penal Code. The charge, which is punishable from 3 months to five years or a fine, "He said. 
For her part, Judge Nada Mohammed Issa said that "the judiciary has never stopped its provisions and it depends on the judgments issued against corrupt officials and waste of public money on evidence and investigative papers," said the judge.
"Sometimes the process of gathering evidence against a corrupt employee before the court of inquiry is difficult, especially those who are still occupying the job and trying to hide its effects in his department, and this delays the investigation." Issa asserts that "the court has the misdemeanors or felonies, And the truth is that most of those referred to this court are state employees and those who are in special degrees professors and deans of the universities and the court does not consider the account but the charge. " 
"The public opinion does not know what is in the investigative papers, as happened in the case of the Secretary of Baghdad (Abuboub), who was sentenced to one year in prison for passing on a sidewalk in front of his house and not for another charge, which exceeded the validity of the street, Access and as the Secretary of Baghdad, the ruling was considered ".
On the Criminal Court and its work, the head of the criminal court in charge of integrity issues, Judge Gomaa Daoud al-Saadi said that "the crimes involving the employee or the person charged with a public service are referred by the competent court of impartiality and are often related to deliberate damage to public funds and misappropriation of state funds, 2011 ". 
He added that "these decisions are subject to legal appeals before the Federal Court of Cassation and are challenged through the people affected by the decision and often by the representative The Integrity Commission is added to its function by legal representatives working in the Court and then sent appeals to the Court of Cassation, which makes its decision according to the evidence either support or veto.
As for the media discourse and the controversy over the corruption issues related to officials and politicians, al-Saadi points out to the "judiciary" that "some of the issues are raised in a media debate and as a court we do not care about people as much as the availability of evidence and the type of case presented regardless of their political affiliations. We consider the case impartially and the decision is subject to appeals Discriminatory ". 
He pointed out that "there are cases referred to the courts belonging to corrupt officials and were released, I would like to point out that this is not a shortening of the court but no material evidence against them, and there are also defendants covered by the Amnesty Law No. 2016 No. 27 and the judiciary is obliged to implement the provisions of the law regardless of what the case".
On sentences against officials, al-Saadi said that "life imprisonment is a maximum penalty for public money cases under Article 315 of the Iraqi Penal Code, but the execution is not legally present in the crimes of integrity," pointing out that " That there is a tightening of punishment in relation to officials. "

Shafak News / The official spokesman of the Supreme Judicial Council, Judge Abdul Sattar Birqdar, the country needs to update the legislation enacted in previous decades, while he stressed on the other hand that the recent law of amnesty allowed the two evils to impunity.

In an interview with the newspaper "Judiciary," Birkdar said about the amnesty law that "the provisions of the amnesty law and the accompanying disadvantages were the judiciary had referred to them before they were issued through a meeting between the President and members of the Federal Court of Cassation with the Legal Committee in the House of Representatives But the law has been passed and voted on despite the negatives in it and the judiciary is obliged to implement the law after its entry.

He added that "some of the corrupt have been convicted of judicial decisions and issued penal sentences against them according to the law, but they included the law of amnesty, which was legislated by the House of Representatives."

"The Iraqi Penal Code No. 111 of 1969, for example, started half a century ago, and the social, administrative and political system differed from what exists today, and many legal and penal texts do not fit in or differ from what happened 50 years ago. This amount was fifty years ago, the value of a property in the highest areas of Baghdad, while the value of a cup of tea is not currently equal to the provisions of the Iraqi Penal Code unfortunately and the judge is obliged to judge because there is no other punitive text.

MPs threaten to raise files of corruption against Abadi

 

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Representatives of the ruling National Alliance in Iraq threatened to open files of corruption against Prime Minister Haidar al-Abbadi during his tenure in the past few years, coinciding with the launch of a massive anti-corruption campaign.

Ebadi's political group accuses him of receiving bribes when he was communications minister in the post-2003 era of the Governing Council, as well as charges of contracts with Orascom Telecom.

The deputy of the ruling coalition Rahim Darraji: The talk is about deals with companies contracted with the Ministry of Communications, when Abadi was headed by the transitional government headed by Iyad Allawi.

He added that these files are still far from sight, and perhaps there is no ability to prove the truth of those accusations, stressing that Abadi in the event of failure in the campaign launched against corruption; it will certainly face a major target of political opponents.

Abbadi presided during the previous two sessions of parliament to the Finance and Investment Committees, which may be exploited by his opponents to the threat of opening the files of those ministries, in light of the talk about corruption in those committees, and waste of public money during the mandates of Nuri al-Maliki the first and second.

According to observers, Abadi can not declare a campaign against the large heads that have been in the government for years, but the results of the investigations are expected to reach third-level figures in the government or general managers.

MPs, consultants and media question Abbadi's campaign against corruption.

These MPs criticize the campaign of Abadi and consider it electoral propaganda with the near date of elections, or an attempt by Abadi to exclude political opponents, most notably Maliki, which reveals the depth of differences between the coalition of state law, which belongs to Abadi and Maliki.

In turn, Abadi responded to those accusations, and said: There are campaigns of opponents to mix the papers, and accuse everyone of corruption.
