When Iraqi prime minister revealed Army irregularities in disbursement of salaries who country shocked.  Speaking in Parliament prime minister accused Army false practices on disbursing salaries for the ghosts. You may be surprised how salaries can be disbursed to Ghosts. But its true, According to initial investigation of Iraqi government, Country army disbursing salaries to non existed people or people who already died in the battle.

The news took headlines when prime minister took on army in the country parliament. Another scam is for soldiers to kick back part of their salary to their officer in return for staying at home or holding another job but never going near a barracks. Mr Abadi’s figure of 50,000 is probably only a modest estimate of the numbers of Iraqi soldiers who play no military role. Prime Minister Haider Al Abadi ordered for investigation preparing for actions on people who responsible for these false practices.
