Iraq Election official’s arrest casts doubt on prospect for fair voting, New York Times (2012)

This news article says that the Chief of the Independent High Electoral Commission, spent most of the weekend in a jail cell after being arrested on corruption charges on Thursday. He was released on Sunday afternoon after posting bail of $12,500. In a country where billions of dollars are siphoned off annually in corrupt oil deals and government contracts, the accusations against Mr. Haidari would seem to be minor: doling out bonuses of about $130 each to five employees. It says also that the prospect for fair elections has been thrown into question.
