A private video allegedly involving two former senior officials from a major company under Iraq’s Ministry of Oil has been leaked on social media, causing widespread controversy across the country. Taking the matter seriously, the Iraqi government has ordered an official investigation. The people reportedly seen in the video are former Oil Projects Company Director Iyad Hussein Al-Jawhar and former Head of the Finance Department Lina Raad Mohsen.
Internal Action and Earlier Dispute
According to available information, the video currently circulating online is not recent. It was reportedly recorded several months ago. After the incident first came to light, the Ministry of Oil took internal disciplinary action. As a result, Iyad Hussein Al-Jawhar was asked to resign and was forced into retirement, while Lina Raad Mohsen was transferred to another oil company.
False Claims and Official Clarification
As the video began going viral again, it created confusion on social media. Some accounts falsely claimed that the man in the video was the current Director General of the Oil Projects Company, Ali Ward Hammoud. In response, the company released an official statement confirming that the current Director General has no connection to the s*x video. The company also warned that legal action would be taken against anyone spreading false information or rumors.
Public Outrage and Call for Legal Action
Despite the events having occurred months prior, the public reaction to the video has been severe. Widespread criticism has emerged because the footage appears to have been filmed inside an official government office, directly in front of the Iraqi flag.
