The statements of Ayoub al-Rubaie, a prominent leader in the "Imam Ali Brigades" militia, one of the militias affiliated with [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Iraqi [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] factions, finally caused a return to the debate about the fate of thousands of kidnapped and disappeared Iraqis during the operations to liberate cities in northern and western Iraq, after he confirmed that all those who have been carried out Their arrest in these areas has been liquidated, considering that there are no such thing as absentees or kidnappers today. On their part,
Commenting on the file, politicians and Iraqi insiders on the file expressed their regret, after the file of the kidnapped and disappeared in Iraq became a tool only for political trade.
Al-Rubaie, known as Abu Azrael and a leader in the Imam Ali Brigades, confirmed in a video recording that all the kidnapped and disappeared persons who were arrested during their displacement during the intensification of the battles led by the Iraqi forces against the organization of "ISIS" were killed, because “Sectarianism has crushed everything and everything,” as he put it. He explained that the kidnappers, not in the prisons of Baghdad and Nasiriyah, were killed, and none of them remained alive. The video clip, in which "Abu Azrael" spoke, quickly spread on social media, but until now he did not receive any government comment, or from Iraqi politicians who had always pledged, in previous times, to continue to follow this file.
Al-Araby Al-Jadeed contacted two Iraqi officials, working closely with Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi, who confirmed that the latter “took the initiative, upon assuming the premiership (Parliament voted on its government formation in April / April 2020), to open the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] people from the regions. The north and west of the country, especially the areas that witnessed battles between the security forces and ISIS, but this collided with the rejection of the armed factions, especially those allied with Iran, specifically the Hezbollah Brigades, Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq, Badr, al-Nujaba and Imam Ali. And one of the sources stated, "The current government does not have any information about the kidnappers, but Al-Kazemi and his government team know that the pro-Iranian militias are involved in the disappearance of thousands of Iraqis for sectarian, political and retaliatory motives."
For his part, independent politician Wael Al-Hazem said, "The Iraqi government, political blocs and influential leaders know that the majority of the disappeared were killed by their captors, but some political forces seek to keep this file open in order to politically exploit it to serve it during the elections and party negotiation processes." And since the Iraqis were kidnapped during the operations to liberate cities that were controlled by ISIS, no detainee has come out to this day, and he narrates the reasons for his arrest, which constitutes sufficient evidence that they (the absentees) have passed away. "
Al-Hazem said, in an interview with Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, that "the kidnapping of thousands of Iraqis for a period of nearly seven years leads to a financial loss to the kidnappers, and therefore it is illogical that all of these disappeared persons will remain in the grip of the kidnapping groups, so they may have been buried in mass graves." As for what confirms his idea, Al-Hazem pointed out that "the Iraqi parliament has recently resorted to including a financial paragraph dedicated to the families of the disappeared, and to hand them monthly salaries to the families of the victims, considering these disappeared martyrs."
For his part, the Iraqi representative of the "Forces" coalition, Yahya Al-Muhammadi, stated that "the news of the kidnapped and disappeared has been interrupted for about 6 years, and most of them disappeared after and during the operations to liberate Iraqi cities from the control of ISIS", criticizing government positions that "have not been since that time on the The measure of responsibility, with great silence on the part of the security and local authorities in the cities where the men and youth of [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] disappeared . Al-Muhammadi explained, in a call with Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, that "these absentees will remain as such (absentee) in both legal and official terms, as long as the government position remains unclear about them. But he believed that "the assumption that they are dead remains greater than the assumption that they will remain alive to this day," stressing the need for this file to remain at the top of the priorities of the government and security authorities.

Iraq does not have, or has not published, an official tally of the number of [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]During the battles with ISIS, however, politicians spoke in previous statements about a "database" of about 20 thousand disappeared persons whose fate is still unknown, distributed in different Iraqi regions, in Anbar, Diyala, Salah al-Din, Nineveh, Kirkuk, Baghdad and Babel, in addition to others who were kidnapped from areas Another Iraqi. The Iraqi parliament recently approved an item in the budget for the current year 2021, which provides for granting monthly salaries to the families of the kidnapped, until the fate of the victims is decided, and whether they are still alive or have been liquidated. The budget voted by Parliament (at the end of last March) included “martyrs’ allocations ”for the families of the disappeared in the country, at a time when a clear fate has not been determined for these absentees, which angered their families who demand disclosure of their fate, and what prompted their refusal to accept these allocations. They considered that it falls within the attempts to procrastinate the file and end its claim, and to protect the parties involved in the kidnapping from any legal accountability.A leader in an Iraqi militia: The disappeared were killed because sectarianism has crushed everything

In his turn, the director of the Iraqi Observatory for Human Rights, Mustafa Saadoun, in contact with Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, expressed his belief that “all the absentees were actually killed, because those who were absent did not do so to negotiate about them, and no party could be concerned. By kidnapping these men and young men and bearing the costs of their food, drink and housing throughout these years. " He also saw that if the process of absenteeism had taken place for financial purposes, the kidnappers would have requested that, indicating that the file would go into oblivion every time as he returned before every election season. ”Saadoun accused“ most of the Sunni politicians ”of“ [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and using it as an election card. ” As for any developments about the file, he asserted that “nothing new except for politicians to trade in these victims, in addition to“ the discovery by the authorities that some of the names of those registered as absentees were members of ISIS, ”according to“20 thousand Iraqis are still absent, according to a "database" previously published by politicians
