Iraqi Shiite politician Ahmed Chalabi’s death this week came as he was working on several cases proving high-level corruption in the Iraqi government, a parliamentary committee said. Hakim Zamili, head of the security committee of the Iraqi parliament, told Rudaw that he and his colleagues were awaiting the official medical report into the sudden death of Chalabi, who died of a heart attack on Tuesday, aged 71. “Chalabi had many significant files about corruption and those files were proving the involvement of Iraqi political parties and Iraqi corrupt leaders,” Zamili said.
