The report of the Integrity Commission for 2017 indicates that the rates of corruption and institutional chaos are still at "red" levels, warning of the seriousness of the immediate phase in Iraq. 
"What has been presented in the 2017 annual report is done by the Integrity Departments of all countries of the world in the context of its high statistics," said Yasiri. 
He added that "the Commission dealt with the year 2017 with more than 20 thousand communications and criminal case and news, where was completed (16180) of the total of what it looked at the period from January 1 to December 31 last year," pointing out that " The criminal cases investigated by the Commission amounted to (8537) cases, of which judicial proceedings (6488) cases, a rate of (76%).

"
"Yasiri said that" the work of the Commission ends at the time of investigation and referral to the judiciary, but with regard to the release of convicts and sentenced, it is concerned with the parties concerned and not our business. " 
The annual report presented judicial orders to ban travel amounting to 315 decisions, including the banning of 5 ministers and 29 people with special grades and general managers and their rank. 
The report included seizures of 57 crimes in Basra, 39 in Baghdad, 33 in Nineveh and 164 operations carried out by the investigation offices of the Integrity Commission in other governorates. 
The annual report referred to the number of persons covered by the amnesty, reaching 3,542 accused and sentenced in 113 cases, as well as 752 convictions and 468 sentences for release.
"We have repeatedly said that this will affect the work of the Integrity Commission, and therefore we are the only party in Iraq that has opposed the inclusion of cases of corruption in the law," the head of the Integrity Commission said bitterly. 
"We have made proposals not to include convicted or accused of corruption in the amnesty law, and we have also submitted a draft law on not allowing the amnesty law to stand for election, but the parties have not yet decided on these proposals," Yasiri said.
In the file of real estate, assets and funds belonging to the state through investigation and follow-up, according to the report, the property was re-owned (15) properties in the province of Karbala, estimated at forty-three billion Iraqi dinars, after the existence of rigging and falsification of ownership, 40 former officials out of a total of 88 officials from the funds and assets belonging to the State in their custody and not returned to the institutions concerned. " 
As well as the return of ownership of other properties belonging to ministries after some of the forgery of their title and transfer to other people, as well as the teams of the Commission to follow up the allocation of some land and real estate contrary to the law, as the work of these teams resulted in the Secretariat General of the Council of Ministers to form a new committee to return Consider the allocation of these lands.
"We have submitted drafts to the concerned parties, including laws on graft, political parties, the right of access to information, the principles of criminal trials and other laws," said Yasiri. "The legal system is dilapidated in Iraq and can not fight corruption. 
"The Authority has worked in the same period exclusively on 420 files of fugitives wanted in cases of corruption, prepared 98 files opened this year, and worked on 76 files to recover the money smuggled prepared 8 files."
The head of the Integrity Commission said that his body "received (23655) a form for disclosure of financial disclosure. The percentage of the response of the presidents of the republic, the ministers, the parliament and the judiciary was 100 percent, the vice presidents of the republic 100 percent, the deputies of the parliament speaker 100 percent and the ministers 90.91 percent. Reveals the ministers, "noting that" the proportion of response to the heads of bodies and entities not associated with the Ministry amounted to 82 percent, not five of them were disclosed, and the proportion of the candidates of the members of the House of Representatives 35 percent. "
"There is no legal provision to criminalize those who have not disclosed their financial liabilities, but that comes within a legal obligation, and those concerned must respond to those procedures," said Yasiri. The deputies proposals for draft laws on the development of a text in the Penal Code criminalizes the reluctance of deputies not to disclose their financial liabilities, but unfortunately, this law has not been enacted so far.

Officials and dozens of parliamentarians evading financial receivables are legally blocking

 

Twilight News    

 3 hours ago

Shivak News / The Legal Committee in the Iraqi parliament, submitted a draft law "Where do you get this?" To the escape of deputies from the disclosure of their financial liabilities. 
Iraqi parliamentarians have begun discussing a new law entitled "Where do you get this from?" To fight corruption and resolve suspicions about the theft of public money, but it faces a campaign of deputies and government officials to block him. 
The law, if approved by the legislative institution, will return to the treasury of the Iraqi government large sums estimated at hundreds of billions of dollars. 
Although the law is still under discussion in the Iraqi parliament, its application by the authorities threatens to expose the corruption files between Iraqi lawmakers and officials, which explains the campaign to stop it.
A member of the legal committee Zana Said to Twilight News, that the draft law "where you this" was introduced, because of the evasion of nearly 200 deputies in the Iraqi parliament from disclosure of their financial liabilities according to the Integrity Commission, adding numbers of officials outside parliament. 
"Those concerned are benefiting from the absence of a legal text to pursue them." 
He said that "the proposal of the law will have a significant role in the fight against corruption and the relevant authorities can enrich it with its proposals and observations before the second reading in parliament." 
According to the draft law, which I read first, it would apply to staff members from the rank of Director-General, and the personal balances of those persons would be considered to be in doubt if they were not commensurate with what the official or staff member received. 
The law also requires officials at the highest levels to submit the disclosure of financial disclosure clearly, and punish those who fail to submit this disclosure by stopping his salary.

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraqi authorities on Tuesday published a new list of internationally wanted "terrorist" leaders led by the leader of the Islamic State, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, as well as five Arab nationalities. 
"These names are more dangerous than the first list published by the authorities on Sunday," a senior Iraqi official was quoted as saying by AFP. "These are wanted for international justice, not just the Iraqi judiciary." "Those listed have completed their international legal procedures and have taken immediate measures to arrest them," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. "These files were issued by the International Sanctions Committee at the United Nations and INTERPOL International."

For the first time last Sunday, the Iraqi authorities released the names of 60 of the most wanted men belonging to the state, al-Qaeda and the ousted Baath Party. The names of Saddam Hussein's daughter, Raghad, now living in Jordan, appear in the list.
In 2014, the state managed to control a vast area of Iraq, including the provinces of Nineveh, Anbar and parts of Kirkuk, Salah al-Din and Diyala. Iraqi forces liberated these cities after three years of fighting, with support from the US-led international coalition. 
Among the names on Sunday's list were princes, breakers, financiers, supporters, assassins and improvised explosive devices, who are still in hiding despite the end of military operations in the country. Among them were Fares Muhammad Yunus al-Mawla, who is referred to as "the governor of the Upper Euphrates" and the head of the military authority for cutting Zammar and Mosul dams, as well as Salah Abdul Rahman al-Abush, the general supplier of the state of Kirkuk and the military official of al-Zub province. Among them is Saddam Hussein Hamoud al-Jubouri, a "prince" of southern Mosul and al-Shorouk, as well as Mahmoud Ibrahim al-Mashhadani, a former officer in Saddam Hussein's regime.
The list includes Fawaz Mohammed al-Mutlaq and three of his sons, a former officer of Saddam's Fedayeen, a paramilitary organization formed in the 1990s. 
Among the most prominent leaders of al-Qaeda, the name of the military leader in Kirkuk, Ahmed Khalil Hassan, and Abdul-Nasser al-Janabi, Mufti and financier of the organization in the area of Jarf al-Sakhr south of Baghdad, which was previously called the "triangle of death." 
As for the former regime, Mahmud Younis al-Ahmad, one of the leaders of the party, came to the top of the list in 2003.
