Iraq: Authorities received files of corruption in the banking sector

dc6b96b3-7e64-486c-adb0-ed77abcd2b12
 
Version: Paper - Internationalالأحد، ٢٤ ديسمبر/ كانون الأول ٢٠١٧ (٠٠:٠٠ - بتوقيت غرينتش)

 

Iraqi Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi received from high commissions of inquiry yesterday, completed files of investigations into files of corruption in the banking sector, pending legal action against those involved. The Iraqi government announced at the end of November, launching a campaign against corruption, after the activation of the work of international investigators to this end last year.

The move is a remarkable development in the country, which suffers from lack of transparency and widespread administrative and financial corruption.

Iraqi sources told Al-Hayat that long investigations over months resulted in the detection of "files of corruption related to the laundering of money through the banking sector." She pointed out that «political figures and officials, contractors and intermediaries, involved in the transfer of funds of fake contracts to bank balances inside and outside Iraq», explaining that «the disclosure was complex».

The sources pointed out that «the files now in the possession of the Office of Abadi, but it is not specified so far the date of taking action against those involved», stressing the «government's intention to hold those involved». She explained that the international investigators «helped in the pursuit of bank accounts with different names in banks outside Iraq, while citing the suspicions of misconduct of high figures in spite of their presence in a government job».

Iraq last year signed a memorandum of understanding with the United Nations to involve international investigators in the files of major corruption of priority, such as smuggling of Iraqi funds abroad and embezzlement in the joints of the state.

"After 2003, Iraq witnessed major and thorny corruption because of the deteriorating security situation and political conflict, which called for the recall of international investigators with expertise and tools in the fight against corruption," said Haidar al-Fawadi, a member of the Integrity Integrity Committee.

Iraq is ranked third in the least transparent countries after Somalia and Sudan according to international classifications, while the volume of money smuggled abroad by about one trillion dollars, and the funds lost at home to more than $ 350 billion.

Iraq has 19 institutions, committees and bodies competent to fight corruption, but is ineffective and subject to political friction and partisan quotas, prompting the government to use international experts.

Iraqi lawmakers have ruled out federal budget approval before the end of this year, and have hoped to turn it into "administrative instructions" that would replace the proposed draft law, as happened in 2014.

The Ministry of Finance issued a circular to ministries and institutions not associated with the Ministry of the provinces and their councils, in respect of disbursements and appointments for 2018, until the adoption of the budget and published in the Official Gazette.

A member of the parliamentary finance committee Rahim Darraji «« life »that« no real obstacles by the parliament to pass the budget, while the objections of the blocks that preceded the discussion of the draft budget bill in the meetings, they are not new demands ».

He pointed out that «the biggest problems lie in the vision of the government embodied in the budget, including the imposition of future generations with large financial burdens and problems in the classification of exchange, and the other is the illogical powers granted by the government for itself». He expected Darraji «repeat what happened in 2014 when parliament failed to vote on the budget despite all attempts».

As the MP for the "coalition of the rule of law," high Nassif, that the fate of the federal budget for 2018 is like the fate of the budget in 2014, which is the lack of voting in the House of Representatives.

She said in a press statement that «instructions were issued on the implementation of the budget and the other related to the suspension of appointments and transfers, all clearly indicates that the current budget may not be approved».

Abadi called yesterday for parliament to accelerate the adoption of the law of the budget of 2018, which included the allocation of 400 million dollars for the reconstruction of liberated areas of «Da'ash», including $ 140 million dollars is supposed to get Baghdad from the World Bank in exchange for terms described as «difficult» include Reducing expenditures and the budget balance, while the President of the Fund for the reconstruction of Iraq Mustafa al-Hiti, "the cost of reconstruction of the affected areas of $ 150 billion."

The economic adviser to the Prime Minister the appearance of Mohammed Saleh yesterday, the amount of emergency grants provided by friendly countries and the World Bank to restore stability in the liberated areas amounted to 500 million dollars. "There are two funds for the reconstruction of the areas affected by terrorism. The first is to restore stability to liberated areas and is funded by donors and the government," Saleh said in a statement. The second is the fund for the reconstruction of areas affected by terrorism.

Saleh added that "the ceiling of emergency grants for the return of these services to these areas amounted to about 500 million dollars." The donor conference to be held in Kuwait in February will discuss the reconstruction of these areas through two tracks, the first of the grants and loans that provide To Iraq through the international community, and the second through investment, which must contribute to the private sector, whether local or global.

Iraq’s Al Abadi blames corruption in government for rise of ISIL

 

Corruption cannot be tolerated and must be eradicated, prime minister tells officials at national security conference

 

Mina Aldroubi

December 24, 2017

Updated: December 24, 2017 07:40 PM

 
Iraqi prime minister Haider Al Abadi called for an end to corruption in the country during a conference in Baghdad on December 23, 2017, saying it was to blame for the rise of ISIL. ludovic Marin / AFP Iraqi prime minister Haider Al Abadi called for an end to corruption in the country during a conference in Baghdad on December 23, 2017, saying it was to blame for the rise of ISIL. ludovic Marin / AFP

 

Prime minister Haider Al Abadi said corruption was to blame for the emergence of ISIL in Iraq and must be eradicated from the country.

“Corruption is a scourge that has led to the formation of a terrorist organisation that managed to control two-thirds of Iraq’s territory in 2014,” Mr Al Abadi told officials on Saturday at a national security conference called by him following the defeat of the extremist group.

Iraq has faced significant corruption challenges since the overthrow of Saddam Hussein's regime in 2003.

In 2015, an Iraqi parliamentary panel called for former prime minister Nouri Al Maliki to face trial over the fall of the northern city of Mosul to ISIL, which allowed the extremists to seize large amounts of weapons and military equipment abandoned by the fleeing Iraqi forces.

Mr Al Maliki, who is now one the country’s three vice presidents, was among dozens of Iraqi officials named in the panel's report on why the city was captured with little resistance in June 2014.

He was blamed for allowing corruption to thrive during his term as prime minister, including in Iraq’s security forces. He was also blamed for creating sectarian tensions, leading to an increase of discontent in Sunni Arab areas that were captured by ISIL.

The extremist group at one point controlled much of northern and western Iraq but was driven back by Iraqi forces with support from an international coalition led by the US. After more than two years of fighting, Mr Al Abadi declared victory over ISIL on December 9.

 
 

After a tough but successful military campaign our counter-terrorism efforts need to focus on security and intelligence measures to protect gains made against Daesh. The professionalism of our security services and the cooperation of our citizens will help achieve lasting peace

 
 
 

Mr Al Abadi on Saturday warned Iraqis “not to underestimate ISIL capability to re-emerge”.

“We should not lose victory by negligence here or there, and we should not allow terrorism to rise again,” he said.

 

لايجوز ان نضيع النصر بغفلة هنا او هناك وان لا نسمح للارهاب بان يحقق اي خرق، فالعدو لديه فكر منحرف ويجب ان نكون بمستوى التحدي من خلال تركيز الجهود الاستخبارية والامنية

 
 

Iraq had emerged from the war against ISIL “victorious and united”, the prime minister said, adding that “nepotism within security forces is the most dangerous aspect of corruption”.

Iraq was ranked 166 out of 176 nations in Transparency International's Corruption Index for 2017, which said the country continued to score among the worst in the world on corruption and governance indicators.

Mr Al Abadi said that “corruption cannot be tolerated and must be eradicated” and that doing so in the country's security and intelligence services was "Iraq’s next challenge”.

Read more: Iraq needs a long-term strategy as much as it needs short-term wins

The issue of corruption is also affecting Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdish region, where two political parties have withdrawn from the regional government following days of protests.

Thousands of Kurds have taken to the streets of Sulaimaniyah since last Tuesday to complain about corruption, delayed salaries and poor services.

Kurdistan insulated itself against violence plaguing the rest of the country following the 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq and enjoyed a decade-long economic boom fuelled by rising Iraqi oil revenues, of which the region received a share.

The bubble began to deflate in early 2014 when the central government in Baghdad slashed funds to the Kurdish Regional Government after it built its own oil pipeline to Turkey in pursuit of economic independence.

Tensions have been high in the region since Baghdad imposed tough economic measures in response to a Kurdish independence referendum on September 25.

The Iraqi government responded by seizing Kurdish-held Kirkuk and other territory disputed between the Kurds and the central government. It also banned direct flights to Iraqi Kurdistan and demanded control over border crossings in the region.

Asharq Al-Awsat
Iraqi Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi stated on Saturday that his country left the battle against the ISIS terrorist group stronger and united.

“The next challenge after the victory against ISIS is on the security and intelligence levels,” he said.

He called for using modern and advanced technology to defeat the enemy.

“The victory should not be wasted due to some oversight and we will not allow terrorism to exploit any flaw,” stressed Abadi.

“The enemy has a skewed mentality and we should be up to the challenge through focusing on intelligence and security efforts,” he explained.

Iraq has many duties ahead of it, such as restoring stability to liberated regions, he continued.

The people also have a responsibility in providing a stable and united base from which the intelligence and security efforts can be launched, said the Iraqi premier.

Abadi also underlined the importance of discipline and combating corruption.

Corruption is a dangerous virus that had initially allowed ISIS to enter Iraq, he noted.

Integrity Courts: We have issued arrest warrants against officials but have not been implemented

 

 Since 2017-12-25 at 12:46 (Baghdad time)

ghjt.jpg

Baghdad Mawazine News

Integrity judges spoke about the mechanism of proceedings in their courts and the reasons for the delay in resolving cases of corruption. They attributed the reasons to administrative investigations and procedures concerning non-judicial entities to the difficulty of gathering evidence against corrupt officials who are still in their jobs because they quickly conceal their effects.

"Integrity cases are of a special nature. They require an administrative investigation, a report from the Office of Financial Supervision 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 delaying the decision on corruption cases to "the failure to complete the administrative investigation procedures by the Office of the Inspector-General, where several months go by without completion of the procedures and if the obstacle of sending the investigation to the minister's office for the purpose of ratification is presented, .

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 offense, which is punishable from 3 months to five years, "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. "

Judge Nada said that "public opinion does not know what is in the investigative papers, as happened in the case of the Secretary of Baghdad (Aaboub), who was sentenced to one year imprisonment for crossing 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 presented are controversial in the media 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 " There is a tightening of the punishment for officials. "

" Members issued arrest warrants, which is responsible for its implementation, it is the responsibility of the executive branch of the Ministry of Interior, "pointing out that" a lot of orders issued against the ministers and agents were not implemented, despite continuing assurances, and some of the reasons due to their escape out of the country, ".ocd" The keenness of the judiciary to implement the arrest warrants and the existence of cooperation between the Supreme Judicial Council and INTERPOL, according to the Riyadh Agreement on Judicial Cooperation. "The investigating judge noted a note regarding the defendants residing in the Kurdistan region, pointing out that" the arrest warrants marked at all border crossings and airports, Some of the defendants who reside in the Kurdistan region, the Ministry of the Interior is to approach the representative of the region as a link between us and the region, because the court is not one of its tasks directly, but we do not find a deaf ear, unfortunately.

The charge, which is punishable by three months to five years or a fine, is referred to a court of delicts. Nada Mohammed Issa that " The judiciary has never stopped its rulings. It relies on the verdicts against corrupt officials and the waste of public money on evidence and investigative papers. Once the investigating magistrate has completed the case, he will be brought before the trial court for the final decision. "" Sometimes, "The court of inquiry is difficult, especially those who are still occupying the post and trying to conceal its effects in their department, which delays the investigation," and emphasizes that "the court has the misdemeanors or felonies, the final decision and according to what the investigating judge can collect. In fact, most of those referred to this court are state employees, In special degrees Professors and deans of the universities, and the court does not consider the consideration but to the charge. "He continued that" Public opinion does not know what is in the investigative papers, as happened in the case of the Mayor of Baghdad (Naeem Abaoub), who was sentenced to one year in prison for crossing a sidewalk in front of his house and not for another charge, which exceeds his authority in the street, "The crimes that concern the employee or the person charged with public service are referred by the court of inquiry concerned with integrity and are often related to deliberate damage to public money and the embezzlement of state funds, according to what was said by the Criminal Court and its work.

"He explained" in light of this is considered by the Criminal Court and issued a verdict of conviction and criminalization or a decision to release the accused for lack of evidence, "pointing out that" These decisions are subject to legal challenges before the Federal Court of Cassation. The persons affected by the decision are often challenged by the representative of the Integrity Commission, as well as by the legal representatives of the Court. The appeals are then sent to the Court of Cassation, As for the media talk and the debate on corruption issues related to officials and politicians, al-Saadi noted that "some of the issues presented are controversial. As a court, we do not care about people as much as the evidence and the type of case presented, whatever their political affiliations. D The decision is subject to appeal discriminatory ways ".ofatt that" There are cases referred to the courts concerning corrupt officials and they were released. I would like to point out that this is not a court failure, but there is no material evidence against them, and there are also defendants covered by the 2016 Amnesty Law No. 27 and the judiciary is obliged to implement the provisions of the law regardless of what the case is. " "The life sentence is a maximum penalty for public money cases under Article 315 of the Iraqi Penal Code, but the death penalty is not legally present in the crimes of integrity," Saadi said. "There is jurisdiction for the court to impose the appropriate punishment, There is a tightening of the penalty in relation to the official yen".
