An official source in Maysan said, "More than 35 suspects were arrested, mostly in the morgue and al-Kahala, east of Nissan, three days after the start of the security operation. They were arrested on the first day."
"The arrests were random, and after the investigation, maybe only 20 detainees will remain," the source, who spoke to al-Mada by telephone, said on condition of anonymity. He disclosed that "among the detainees are drug dealers and holders of unlicensed weapons." "During the operation a number of medium-caliber weapons were controlled," he said.
The operations of Rafidain, announced last Monday, the launch of the operation with the participation of the army, the tasks of Dhi Qar and Muthanna emergency regiment and the elite group of Wasit province and the emergency regiment of Maysan I, in addition to a special military force of the Operations Command and a force of the Directorate of Security and Intelligence Rafidain.
According to the official source, the troops are pursuing members of a clan who control al-Shaib port, the only border crossing between Maysan and Iran.
The source close to the operations, the existence of "raids on the homes of the clan in the area of the column of the area of the morgue, where the conflict between them led to kidnappings and killing mutual." "The defendants have started to flee since the military campaign was carried out," he said.
War of the port of Shib
and armed clashes broke out between two families of the same clan, which used heavy weapons lasted for several days, against the backdrop of a struggle to control the port of gray.
"The income of members of the clan is less than $ 90,000 a day because of control over the port and oil stations in the province," the source said.
Earlier this year, the Maysan council decided to close Al-Shib port for 10 days before deciding to reopen after the federal government rejected the measure.
"The government wants to keep the port open, but it can not stand against the conflicts that are being caused by it," said Maysan provincial council member Hassan Ali Mazal.
"The revenues of the port reach up to 4 billion dinars a month if it works at full capacity," he said, adding that "the revenues of the port of Safwan rose to 17 billion dinars and 200 million per month, after the removal of the government gangs."
The prime minister's envoy, Turhan, who arrived in Maysan on Tuesday, heard details of the events there and how the clan controls the border post and the oil transfer.
The official source in Maysan that "the Mufti met with members of the provincial council and the police chief and the province," noting that "the governor demanded the dismissal of the police chief."
"The mufti will present the report of what happened in Maysan to the prime minister, who will decide within 72 hours the fate of the situation in the province and the police chief," the source said.
In turn, the Mufti apologized for making any details about the results of his visit to Maysan. "I was on a specific mission by Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to Maysan and then I returned from it," he said.
The third campaign
For his part , the governorate council form committees to study the demands of the Governor Ali Douai, the dismissal of police chief Brigadier General Nizar al - Saadi, who is accused of covering up his own tribe, in addition to the other committee to discuss the problems revealed by the latter.
"Brigadier Saadi confirmed that intelligence allocations are zero, and that he has 350 idle machines that do not have the money to repair them," said Hassan Mazal, a member of the provincial council of the State of Law Coalition.
Two previous campaigns, launched with the participation of forces outside Maysan in March and May, failed to put an end to armed tribal conflicts.
In a related context, MP Maysan Mohammed al-Chihod questioned the success of such military operations in establishing security in the province.
"The local government is unable to control the security, and there are hundreds of arrest orders," he said. "The criminals will return after the end of the operation, which will not exceed two weeks."
Five hundred members of the rapid regiment, which carried out the first operation in Maysan, managed to install security for only a few days.
Sarhan al-Ghalibi, head of the security committee in Maysan, called for "the return of these forces to carry out new operations," adding that "the force has missions in other provinces."
The majority, in connection with the (range) yesterday, does not expect the danger in Missan to end this process. But he says, "We have 7 regiments of federal police and local police, a sufficient number but that management imbalances."
The local official, "the governor and the police chief, are calling on him to step down if they do not have the ability to solve the problem of clan conflicts."
Clans and drugs
According to the informed source that most of the elements of the security forces and officers, and even officials in the province, afraid to arrest wanted or to give information about any accused. "The witness in these crimes will be killed or imposed a tribal separation worth 50 million dinars."
Adnan Jassem, a member of the Dawa Party in the Council of Maysan, holds the government in Baghdad responsible for the situation in the province and the chaos at the border post.
"We have no hope of an end to tribal conflicts, but we hope some of the armed manifestations will recede during the last campaign," Jassim said in a telephone interview with Al-Mada.
The previous security operations, called by the National Security Council in February, failed to limit the weapons, but succeeded in reducing the drug trade, which began to spread in Maysan and some southern provinces.
The investigation of a previous newspaper, published (range), has confirmed that some of the military operations in Maysan carried out by the federal government was to control the drug trade.
"Young people returning from Iran, most of them drug addicts, have deployed kristal and pills in cafes," said Hasan Khazal, a member of the Missan Council. "After the killing of a major merchant in Azzir, trade has dropped significantly," he said.
