Shafaq News- Saladin
Iraqi anti-corruption
investigators on Sunday raided locations linked to the suspected financial
network of suspended former Oil Ministry Undersecretary Adnan Al-Jumaili in
northern Saladin province, a security source told Shafaq News.
Joint teams from the Federal
Commission of Integrity and the Anti-Corruption Committee searched the home of
a man identified by the initials M.B. in Al-Suwaidan village in Al-Shirqat
district. The man owns one of the province’s largest currency exchange
companies and is believed to have managed transfers connected to the
investigation, the source said.
The operation also targeted
the home of a Baiji Refinery official in Al-Eitha village as authorities
reviewed financial records involving the exchange company and several
individuals.
The case stems from the
investigation into Al-Jumaili, whose testimony later led to arrest warrants for
more than 70 officials, according to Iraqi judicial statements and Shafaq News
sources, and forms part of the ongoing nationwide anti-corruption campaign,
Dawn Crackdown (Sawlat Al-Fajr), which has drawn lawmakers, provincial
officials, and business figures.
A Shafaq News review found
Iraqi authorities detained at least 31 officials and public employees in seven
separate cases between July 20 and July 26.
