An Iraqi court sentenced two politicians to prison over corruption involving state oil refinery contracts. Azm Alliance leader Muthanna al-Samarrai received six years and lawmaker Ziad al-Janabi five years. They were ordered to repay approximately $19.8 million and $2.6 million respectively. The case concerns payments and contracts linked to Iraq’s state-owned North and South Refineries companies amid a wider crackdown.
