Member of Parliament Abdul Hamza al-Khafaji confirmed on Tuesday the continued squandering of public funds without any real deterrent, revealing that trillions of dinars remain in the hands of corrupt individuals without being recovered. He questioned the effectiveness of government measures to pursue the stolen funds and hold those involved accountable.
Al-Khafaji told the Information Agency, “The issue of corruption and the depletion of the Iraqi people’s wealth remains the biggest challenge for the state, given the lack of the necessary resolve to recover the astronomical sums and trillions of dinars that have been looted and are now in the possession of corrupt entities and individuals inside and outside the country.”
Al-Khafaji asked, “Where is the real role of the government and its executive bodies in recovering these funds and activating international agreements to extradite those who smuggled wealth?” He stressed that “the current government is required to provide transparent and frank explanations to the public and the people’s representatives regarding its failure in this matter, especially since its performance has not been at all up to the required level and does not live up to the promises it made in combating corruption and drying up its sources.”
