Iraq’s prime minister ordered that individuals who report assets and public property obtained through corruption crimes be paid substantial financial rewards.

The Iraqi state news agency reported that Ali al-Zaidi called on all citizens to report any assets or public property obtained through corruption crimes so as to help identify and return these assets to the government. He described this as the “religious, ethical and national responsibility of all citizens.”

The Central Bank of Iraq also issued an order the day before to seize all movable and immovable assets belonging to 12 political figures and senior government officials within the framework of cases related to the fight against corruption.

The anti-corruption campaign in Iraq’s new government began in June, and so far dozens of former and current officials—including people close to the Islamic Republic and militia groups—have been arrested on charges of financial corruption.

The Kurdistan Region has also reported the detention and handover of suspects and fugitives in economic corruption cases to Iraq’s central government.
