Today, Saturday, the Parliamentary Integrity Committee accused Haitham al-Jubouri, the technical advisor to the caretaker prime minister, of being the “mastermind” of stealing tax money, as it is known as the “theft of the century,” while his relationship with the first accused, “Nour Zuhair,” was revealed.
A member of the committee, Ali Al-Jamali, said in an interview with Al-Information Agency, that, “The Parliamentary Finance Committee, during 8 consecutive years, made the former deputy and advisor to Al-Kazemi, Haitham Al-Jubouri, an integrated system of corruption.”
He added, “Al-Jubouri promoted many negative things, whether it was at the level of possession or negligence as well,” noting that “the file of inflation in his money is a simple matter in relation to other thefts, especially the theft of the century that he committed.”
A member of the Integrity Committee explained: “He is supposed to be held accountable for what he did and caused the promotion of the theft of the century,” considering him “the planner, the mastermind, and the main figure.”
And he indicated, “The first accused of stealing tax money, Nour Zuhair, is the director of Haitham Al-Jubouri’s office for 8 years,” pointing out that “the claim that Nour did not know Al-Kazemi’s advisor is incorrect, and the relationship between them is fixed.”
Earlier, a force from the Integrity Commission, backed by the intelligence of the Ministry of Interior, arrested the technical advisor to the Prime Minister, Haitham al-Jubouri, on the background of the investigation into the file of theft of tax secretariats amounting to two and a half billion dollars.
The tax money theft scandal sparked angry popular reactions, which demanded that those involved be disclosed and imprisoned, amid clear negligence on the part of the caretaker prime minister, Mustafa Al-Kazemi.
