a new fraud and fraud carried out by influential parties in financial companies and banks, against hundreds and perhaps thousands of citizens without their knowledge. The head of the "National Approach" bloc and a member of the Parliamentary Integrity Commission, Ahmed Taha Al-Rubaie, received dozens of complaints from citizens confirming the presence of their names in the " The "platform" launched by the Central Bank of Iraq to sell foreign currency "dollars" and receive amounts designated for travel while they have not traveled at all.
Al-Rubaie explained, in an interview with "Al-Sabah", that "the issue falls within the circle of fraud and fraud operations, and it may have been carried out on (wide levels) in coordination with influential parties, and these parties may have received the sums instead of tens of thousands of citizens or hundreds of thousands, Especially since the platform is closed, and most citizens do not know anything about it, and whoever is lucky to know that will bear the penalty of accusation and exploitation.
He stressed that "banks (governmental and private) are the only party authorized to issue (credit cards - Visa or Master Card), and therefore the fraud and fraud operations were carried out by people within those banks and money transfer companies managed by influential people."
Al-Rubaie pointed out, "We, as a legislative oversight body, have sent an inquiry letter to the Central Bank, and the matter will be followed up by the Federal Integrity Commission to uncover fraud and manipulation operations that were carried out smoothly and without accountability, and by people who have a direct or indirect relationship with government institutions." Or non-governmental organizations to take advantage of the (closed platform) and list names and receive sums allocated for travel to citizens whose passports for travel were not even indicated.
A member of the Parliamentary Integrity Committee noted that "these issues are very serious, as the file or goal may not only be financial, but may also result in other matters, such as the use of a person's documents in imports, and may result in legal matters that fall victim to the citizen who needs quite a while to prove his innocence." Al-Rubaie called for "forming specialized committees to uncover those involved and accomplices in these operations," asking the Central Bank about its responsibility and procedures in the face of these clear violations and explicit manipulation by companies and banks that are the only party capable of issuing (credit cards).
And to ascertain the truth of the information obtained by “Al-Sabah” by the head of the “National Approach” bloc and a member of the Parliamentary Integrity Committee, and regarding the aforementioned complaints to the Central Bank, the latter did not deny the complaints received from a member of the Integrity Committee.
The Deputy Governor of the Central Bank, Dr. Ammar Hamad Khalaf, explained to “Al-Sabah” that “many complaints were received by the Central Bank by citizens regarding their receipt of the amounts allocated for travel while they did not travel,” pointing out that “the Central Bank is aware of this, The companies involved were held accountable and all measures were taken, including fining the company or the bank and compensating the citizens by the company involved, until the measures taken by the Central Bank reached the point of stopping the company from entering the window as a punishment.
And he stressed that "the Central Bank takes into account all complaints and takes the necessary measures against these companies and banks, and issues penalties and compensating citizens."
In turn, Muhannad Al-Atabi, a researcher on political affairs, said in an interview with "Al-Sabah": "The corrupt are still making use of every loophole they see to plunder the country, and this is evidenced by the rumors of leaks and even confirmations of the exploitation of citizens' passports without their knowledge to earn foreign currency." (The dollar) that the government sells at the official rate, so that money gangs can seize it and sell it at the black market price.”
He pointed out that "we have been informed that there are banking companies, in collusion with tourism companies, that have earned huge amounts of money in the names of citizens who have not traveled," expressing his astonishment "at the slowdown in legal deterrence, which makes those concerned face the responsibility of performing their duty."
