The office of former Finance Minister Taif Sami categorically denied on Monday reports circulating in some media and social platforms claiming her escape from Iraq or her arrest as part of an alleged anti-corruption drive. In a statement, the office
asserted these allegations are "baseless" and lack credible official sources, strongly denouncing the spread of inaccurate news and rumors designed to mislead the public. It urged media, analysts, and activists to ensure accuracy and professionalism, relying solely on official sources
before disseminating information. The office also called upon the Communications and Media Commission to monitor misleading reports and enforce necessary actions under existing laws, confirming it will initiate legal proceedings against those who propagate such rumors without official substantiation.
