Iraq resorts to Interpol to pursue 4 of those involved in the theft of the century
Baghdad – Iraq Today:
The Economist magazine published a report in which it said that the Iraqi authorities, motivated by the magazine’s recent revelations about the theft of $ 2.5 billion of state funds, called on America, Britain and Interpol to help arrest and extradite suspects in the case on the territory of those countries.
The magazine explained in a report translated by Iraq Today, that there are four senior figures in the previous Iraqi government under Mustafa Al-Kazemi wanted in the case, namely former Finance Minister Ali Allawi, Raed Johi, director of the former Prime Minister’s Office, private secretary Ahmed Najati, and adviser Mashreq Abbas who live in Dubai, London and Washington.
Responsibility for further action has been transferred to Western and Middle Eastern governments.
Iraqi courts have previously confiscated property belonging to former acting finance minister Ihsan Abdul-Jabbar, who opened the investigation, and businessman Nur Zuhair was released on bail last November and also traveled abroad.
Kadhimi’s allies say the ongoing manhunt is a Sudanese manhunt to distract from allies of the current government, who are also suspected of corruption.

The magazine quoted people close to Kadhimi as saying, “The leaders of Shiite groups who support al-Sudani worked with Zuhair to raise funds.”
Corruption has been a staple of Iraqi politics since the Americans toppled Saddam Hussein in 2003, but the massive tax fraud described in the magazine report shows Iraqis for the first time in detail how state coffers were stormed.
“Politicians across the ethnic and sectarian spectrum have united to smuggle hundreds of billions of dollars in oil and tax revenues.”

The former Undersecretary of the Ministry of Finance for the Kurdistan Democratic Party, Fadel Nabi Hassan, attributed the reason for the budget problem to the fact that the Kurdistan region has not taken its share of the general budget so far because it has not issued instructions for its implementation and other problems, including some items that he described as “provocative”, adding that with this, things are moving toward a solution.
