AAH channel presses federal integrity body onto Kurdistan oil revenues

Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official owned media) ran a concentrated block of MP Ghalib Mohammed's allegations against the Kurdistan Regional Government, including a call for the Federal Integrity Commission to take strict measures against those he called corrupt

WHAT HAPPENED

In a four-item run between 18:49 and 18:54 on 4 August, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official owned media) carried MP Ghalib Mohammed from a press conference of the National Stance Movement, alleging the Kurdistan Regional Government owes more than $37 billion despite producing over two billion barrels of oil, asking where electricity and border-crossing revenues go, alleging 50,000 barrels a day are directed to the Lanaz and Kar refineries he described as belonging to the ruling family, and calling on the Federal Integrity Commission to intervene. The allegations rest on this single speaker relayed by a single channel; the retrieved window contains no other carriage and no outside coverage of the figures.
