    Iraq says it still retains the Qatari funds sent to free the hostages

    Iraq said it still had hundreds of millions of dollars sent by Qatar to release members of the ruling family in April after being kidnapped in 2015.
    Press reports indicated that some of the funds had ended up in Iran, angering Saudi Arabia and other Gulf Arab states and contributing to the decision to sever ties with Qatar.
    But Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said in comments broadcast on state television on Sunday that the funds were in the central bank in Baghdad pending a decision on what to do.
    "These funds are still secretaries at the Central Bank of Iraq ... not one dollar was spent, not euros ... in which euros and dollars (funds still) in their funds under the supervision of a committee until two represent the Qatari government ... The secretariats The Central Bank of Iraq ... has not acted. "
    He added without going into details that the decision on how to conduct the funds "has a political side and a legal side and we take into account the two in a manner appropriate to Iraqi law."
    Abadi said in April that the authorities had seized bags containing hundreds of millions of dollars in a private Qatari plane landed in Baghdad. He said the funds were part of a deal to free Qatari hostages without Baghdad's approval.
    The 26 hostages, including members of Qatar's ruling family, were kidnapped during a hunting trip in northern Iraq in 2015. It was unclear how their release had been negotiated.
    No one has claimed responsibility for the kidnapping, which occurred in an area near the border with Saudi Arabia dominated by armed Shi'ite factions close to Iran.

    Iraq still has Qatari money sent to free ruling family members: PM

    Posted on June 12, 2017

    BAGHDAD,— Iraq still has hundreds of millions of dollars sent by Qatar to secure the release in April of members of the Qatari ruling family abducted in 2015, Iraq’s prime minister said on Sunday.

    Press reports had suggested some of the money had ended up in Iran, angering Saudi Arabia and the other Gulf Arab neighbors of Qatar and contributing to their decision to severe ties with Doha.

    However, Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said in comments broadcast on state TV on Sunday that the money was in the central bank in Baghdad, pending a decision on what to do with it.

    “Not one dollar, or euro (…) was spent; they are still in their crates, supervised by a committee, and two representatives of the Qatari government came to check when they were deposited under the trusteeship of the central bank,” he said.

    The decision on how to dispose of the money “has a political aspect and has a legal aspect, it will be taken in conformity with Iraqi law,” he said, without elaborating.

    The prime minister said in April authorities had seized suitcases containing hundreds of millions of dollars on a private Qatari jet that landed in Baghdad. He suggested the funds were part of a deal to free the Qatari hostages without Baghdad’s approval.

    The 26 hostages, including members of Qatar’s ruling royal family, were abducted during a hunting trip in southern Iraq in 2015. It is unclear how their release was negotiated.

    No one claimed responsibility for the abductions, which took place near a Saudi border area dominated by Shi’ite militias close to Iran.
