Iraq unearths millions in former official's home
The Integrity Commission in Iraq succeeded in confiscating approximately 7 million dollars in cash, along with gold bars and jewelry, from the homes of Khalid Atiya, the former Deputy Minister of Electricity for Transmission and Distribution. This was carried out in response to judicial orders. The authorities found uniform sums in both dollars and Iraqi currency, in addition to seven gold bars and valuable jewelry. This operation is part of the commission's efforts to combat corruption and uncover funds obtained by the accused through illegal means. An internal report also indicated that around 600 tribal sheikhs cooperated with security agencies to register the weapons of their tribe members, aiming to control armed groups and strengthen the state's authority over weapons.
