“Manipulating the dollar at an Iraqi airport.” A deputy identifies the bank and calls on the Sudanese to intervene

Shafaq News / The representative of Najaf Governorate, Ahmed Majeed, demanded, on Thursday, the Prime Minister, Muhammad Shia’a Al-Sudani, to intervene to stop the manipulation and embezzlement of the dollar in the Mosul Bank branch at Najaf airport.

Majeed told Shafaq News agency, “The Integrity Commission revealed that the Mosul National Bank for Investment and Development, Al-Najaf Airport Branch, transferred the airport’s balance from dollars to dinars at the official rate and closed its current account despite the creation of funds in dollars.”

He added, “The Bank of Mosul is considered the arms of one of the economic parties and caused a waste of public money amounting to one billion and 140 million dinars, conducting the transfer of revenues from dollars to dinars and disbursing funds at the official rate.”

Majeed confirmed that a request had been submitted to the Prime Minister, Muhammad Shia’ al-Sudani, to “open a high-level investigation into the embezzlement of funds and exempt the director of Najaf Airport, due to the airport administration’s collusion with the bank’s administration.”

And the Federal Integrity Commission had announced earlier that it was able to control all the priorities for violations committed by the Mosul National Bank for Investment and Development – Najaf Airport Branch, which caused a waste of more than one billion dinars, while pointing out that this resulted from the failure of the airport administration to take action. The bank was legally responsible for holding the bank accountable, which caused the latter to exploit it and benefit from it.

It was not possible to obtain comment from the bank or Najaf airport on this information.
