Saairun Alliance MP Salam al-Shammari called on Prime Minister Adil Abd al-Mahdi to send a specialized committee to uncover corruption cases in Nineveh province. This comes days after a ferry sank near Mosul, killing dozens of people.

"Uncovering corruption files in the province and bringing those involved to justice will give a positive impression of the rapid response of the government to the demands of citizens and national forces," Shammari said in a statement.

He added that what happened in Mosul recently and the mutual accusations between certain parties requires a quick intervention by the government.
