According to an investigation by the Iraqi Network for Investigative Journalism, "the number of innocent prisoners reveals a real problem in the security and investigative system in Iraq, according to experts, where thousands of arbitrary arrests are carried out to counter the escalation of violence. These arrests create problems in the community peace and lead to differences between the political forces" .
"The statistics do not include arrests in prisons belonging to some popular factions that were founded in the summer of 2014," said a former deputy from Anbar province, that the militia, "Hezbollah" has arrested 3,000 residents of Anbar in stages since the start of the battle to restore the city of Fallujah Of the Mayors in May 2016, asserting that their fate is still unknown.

Political and clan leaders from these governorates have used the term "four years" in reference to the fact that article 4 targets only the Sunni component. This article is based on the Anti-Terrorism Law No. 13 of 2005, Provides for the death penalty "for anyone who has committed as an original actor
On the other hand, a former deputy in the parliament said in a press statement that "there are bargains between the police and the prisoners' families to pay money for the release of their children from prisons, and the manner in which the bargaining was arranged, adding that" the process is conducted through lawyers who follow the case papers, Money can not get out of prison, despite his innocence, "pointing out that the current pricing for the release of innocent detainees, vary according to the type of charge, the charge of terrorism is the highest among the charges and the amount of two hundred or 300 thousand dollars followed by theft.
The investigation points out that "for similarity of names, the wrong arrests are also due to the similarity of names, a common phenomenon inside Iraq. The names of familiar persons are numerous and derived from the religious and tribal heritage. The country has witnessed hundreds of arrests of persons wanted for justice, The wrong person, where the detachments at the checkpoints deployed at the entrances of the Iraqi provinces and neighborhoods computers devices include lists wanted to judge on terrorist or criminal charges obtained from the Iraqi judiciary, but the problem that the lists include the name of the wanted and his father While his grandfather is rare, with the charge and the court that demands it, without including any other information such as the mother's name, title, character or personal image.
