The head of the Parliamentary Order 160 Committee to investigate suspicions of corruption in Iraqi ports, Yasser Al-Hussaini, revealed today, Friday (July 12, 2024), 3 results that he described as "bitter" in the Basra ports file.
Al-Husseini told Baghdad Today, "What we are doing is perhaps the most important parliamentary investigation to preserve the wealth of Iraqis by addressing a sensitive and dangerous file due to the huge amount of money and the administrative and financial violations that have been detected."
He added, "Investigations are continuing into the file of suspicions of financial and administrative corruption in Iraqi ports, despite the existence of three-dimensional pressures from influential political and governmental parties in a single attempt, which is to undermine the work of the committee as much as possible and obstruct what it is doing."
The MP said, "Three bitter facts were revealed: the waste of 20 trillion dinars is not suspicion, but a fact. There is a lot of evidence accompanied by long decades that mortgage Iraq's wealth to corrupt political parties. In addition, the extent of the pressures revealed the identity of those who want to keep the scourge of corruption eating away at the ports to sustain their coffers with money, without caring about the harm it causes to the Iraqis."
He considered that "the investigation into the Basra ports file is the most dangerous and important and is a courageous step in confronting the scourge of corruption that has large arms," stressing that "what we seek is to preserve public money and stop the draining of the country's wealth."
It is noteworthy that the head of the parliamentary investigation committee into suspicions of corruption in Iraqi ports, Yasser Al-Hussaini, revealed on Thursday (April 25, 2024) that there were attempts to obstruct the work of the committee specialised in uncovering corruption in the ports.
Al-Hussaini said in a statement received by "Baghdad Today", "We started the committee's work a few days ago and it will continue until the end of the week. We in Basra Governorate have started the committee's work, which those who have been covering up the corruption in the ports for the past period are trying to obstruct," he said.
He added, "Whoever accuses the investigative committee of failure must prove that he investigated with a single piece of paper the corruption of the ports. Therefore, they are specialized committees and the fifth parliamentary session is nearing its end."
Member of the Parliamentary Integrity Committee, Ali Turki, had previously stated that the committee formed to investigate corruption files in the ports had failed in its mission.
On April 15, the acting Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mohsen Al-Mandalawi, decided to form a parliamentary committee to investigate “violations” at Iraqi ports.
The committee is formed under the chairmanship of MP Yasser Hashem Al-Hussaini and the membership of MPs Faleh Al-Khazaali, Hassan Salem Abdul Rahim Al-Shammari, Mona Al-Sabil, Siban Aziz Soran Omar Muwaffaq Hussein Saud Al-Saadi Abdul Amir Al-Mayahhi Alaa Al-Haidari Ali Al-Maksousi, and Rafiq Al-Salihi. It is responsible for investigating violations in Iraqi ports, and the committee will be supported by employees from the ministry and the relevant bodies according to the committee’s needs, and the results of the investigation will be presented to the House of Representatives.”
