Shafaq News/ The head of the investigation committee into suspicions of corruption in Iraqi ports, MP Yasser Al-Husseini, revealed on Thursday that there are attempts to obstruct the work of the committee specializing in uncovering corruption in Iraqi ports.
Al-Husseini said, in a statement received by Shafaq News Agency, “We began the work of the committee a few days ago and it will continue until the end of the week. We in Basra Governorate have begun the work of the committee, whose work is being tried to obstruct by those who cover up port corruption over the past period.”
He added, “Whoever accuses the investigative committee of failure must prove the investigation with one piece of paper about port corruption, and therefore they have specialized committees and the fifth parliamentary session is nearing its end.”
A member of the Integrity Committee in the Iraqi Parliament, Ali Turki, had previously stated that the mission of the committee formed regarding corruption files in the ports had failed in its mission.
