    Iraqis are accustomed to talking a lot about corruption without taking any serious steps to combat it (AFP)[/size]


    Many Iraqis have become accustomed to the lack of seriousness of the campaigns launched by successive governments to combat corruption from 2009 to August 2020, because most of those responsible for corruption in cases revealed to the media have been acquitted or prosecuted against them have been stopped, after pressures on the Iraqi judiciary By senior politicians and former prime ministers at the time.
    Iraqis are also tired of the frequent talk of those responsible for corruption and its damages for more than a decade without achieving a single public trial, which is presented to the public to convince him of the seriousness of the state in limiting the penetration of administrative corruption and its supporters in state institutions and departments, which caused a serious decline in services and economic activities.
    Successive governments have failed to finish many corruption files that were revealed to the public, but political pressures emptied them of their content and released many of those involved, such as the file of the Minister of Trade and the former leader of the Dawa Party, Abdul Falah al-Sudani, who was accused of corruption cases, and the former governor of Kirkuk, Najm al-Din Karim. Majid al-Nasrawi, the former governor of Basra and a leader in the Supreme Islamic Council, and other governors, and a number of deputies, most notably Mishaan al-Jubouri, who publicly admitted receiving bribes, as well as many directors of influential political parties.
    Positive shift
    Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi's formation of the Anti-Corruption Committee in August 2020, led by Lieutenant General Ahmed Abu Ragheef, who is known for his pursuit of Al-Qaeda and ISIS networks from 2008 to 2013, represented a major and positive shift within the Iraqi state system to follow up on corruption files that have become part of the daily conversation of most Iraqis.
    The committee has been able during the past months to arrest a large number of department directors and personalities involved in corruption cases, such as the head of the General Retirement Authority, Ahmed Abdel Jalil and his brothers, and the head of the "Key Card" company, Baha Abdul Hussein, against whom judicial rulings ranging from 4 to 6 years were issued, in addition to many Managers of government banks and Iraqi businessmen.
    Al-Jourani is a great goal
    The arrest of the Iraqi businessman, Bahaa al-Jurani, last February, known as a broker to buy Iraqi ministries over the past decade, to a great surprise to many Iraqi political circles, which, according to senior government sources, rushed to pressure the Iraqi government to release him, but their attempts Failed.
    Al-Jourani's confessions led to the disclosure of the involvement of many political figures and MPs in working with him to facilitate his steps in buying ministries with the aim of seizing all of their projects. His confessions to the leader of the Al-Hal Party, Jamal Karbouli and a number of his family, in participating with him in corruption deals, led to the arrest of Al-Karbouli several days before Before a force affiliated with the Special Squad and the Anti-Corruption Commission.
    Waste sums
    Former member of the Anti-Corruption Council, Saeed Yassin, states that the amount of wasted sums for the period from 2006 to 2016, according to unofficial estimates, amounted to 360 billion dollars. He adds, "The files that the government is currently working on are old files to encircle the corruption process, but they are now completed in the corridors of the judiciary." Pointing out that the governmental committee that follows up on corruption files coordinates with the bodies of integrity, the bureau of financial oversight and the judiciary, and specializes in following up large cases and has broad powers through the authorization of Al-Kazemi.
    Yassin expresses his fear of using political influence to obstruct the fight against corruption, pointing out that "the committee is required to do its work and obtain the confidence of the people and not to retreat because this matter will shake the public's confidence in it, indicating that the committee's work is conducted in secrecy in procedures and information."

    Regarding the recovery of funds by prison depositors accused of corruption cases, Yassin explains that "the approved mechanism is for the affected party to file a second lawsuit to recover the money," considering that recovering the money is a difficult process when transferring it to banks outside Iraq, because those banks need sufficient evidence to spend that country for the purpose of It takes years to recover them in those cases. "
    Raising 12 thousand cases of corruption
    He revealed that there have been more than 9 requests from the Iraqi judiciary to the House of Representatives since 2019 to lift the immunity of MPs who were former ministers, governors, and employees in order to appear before the judiciary, explaining that most of these cases concern their corruption during the job they previously enjoyed before the 2018 elections.
    Yassin continues that the Anti-Corruption Commission is currently following up 12,000 cases of corruption in all job ranks with the aim of liquidating them, after they were previously suspended and looking for the heads of their corruption.
    Many challenges
    Former head of the Integrity Commission, Musa Farag, points out that there is a challenge before the Al-Kazemi Committee to follow up on the corrupt, which is related to not being a whirlwind in a cup and not for the corrupt to come out with political pressure. Faraj adds, “The arrest warrants issued against some party figures such as Jamal al-Karbouli, head of the Al-Hall bloc, clash with the current regime and founded The quota system, indicating that there is opposition from some to bring in personalities from one component without bringing in personalities from another component.
    The Independent Arabia was unable to obtain an official permit from the Anti-Corruption Commission.
    58 A warrant of arrest
    Despite the issuance of the Integrity Commission last March 58 arrest warrants against ministers, governors, members of Parliament and members of provincial councils, the focus now is on the work of the Al-Kazemi Committee, according to Farag, who warned against removing those accused of corruption cases claiming that there is insufficient evidence due to Political pressure. He said that many corruption cases are issued in absentia due to the delay in the issuance of judicial decisions, which leads to the defendant’s escape, pointing out that there are thousands of corruption cases before the Integrity Commission.
    A great activity for the Kazemi Committee
    The head of the Parliamentary Integrity Committee, MP Thabet Al-Abbasi, told the official agency, "The Diwani Order 29 Committee has begun to impose its effectiveness on the ground, through the files it has reached, as well as the files submitted by the Integrity Commission and the Board of Financial Supervision." By suspending two public directors and some political figures, "noting that arresting the figures does not mean conviction, but the judiciary is the one who decides that.
    Al-Abbasi added that "there is a set of files the committee is working on, especially in the fields of electricity, industry and other files," stressing his committee's support for the work of the Supreme Committee.
    On August 30, the prime minister announced the formation of a higher investigation committee into major corruption and criminal files, and granted it all the powers to restore the state’s prestige and rights.
