Border crossings suffer 'unprecedented' corruption – MP
Iraqi border crossings are suffering unprecedented corruption by the powerful political parties, MP Mohamed al-Sahioud said on Friday.
In a press statement, Sahioud asserted that parties control over these border crossings have rendered them useless, calling for the Federal Government to retake them.
He added that when parties controlled Safwan border crossing its revenue did not exceed 100 million Iraqi dinars and when the government changed its administration it generated over 33 billion Iraqi dinars a month.
He further stated that al-Shayb border crossing in Maysan revenues do not exceed a quarter of Safwan's as a result of the parties influence.
