Shafaq News/ Iraqi parliament is set to interrogate Ismail al-Hiloub, the Governor of Saladin, along with his technical deputy and several general directors in the governorate over corruption allegations.

The session is scheduled for Wednesday, October 4, according to documents received by Shafaq News Agency.
