#2  The required payments were not received:

Wiki....al-Zamili was deputy minister during the height of the sectarian conflict in Iraq.[1] Whilst he was at the ministry, he was accused of running death squads that used ambulances and hospitals to kidnap and murder Sunni Arabs.[2] He was arrested in February 2007, accusing of funneling money to private militias.[3] He was also accused of kidnapping in November 2006 another deputy Health Minister, Ammar al-Saffar, from the Shiite Dawa Party, who had allegedly compiled a dossier of his crimes that he was going to hand over to the Prime Minister.[4][5] He was cleared of all charges when key witnesses failed to show up after facing alleged intimidation.
