The Iraqi Defence Minister is a Swedish citizen
Being registered at the wrong address is a criminal offence in Sweden. Al-Shammari and his wife are also investigated for welfare fraud.
Despite working as Defense Minister, al-Shammari still receives welfare from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency (Försäkringskassan). Neither al-Shammari nor his wife have a registered income the last couple of years.
In their application for welfare from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency, the couple also claims that they have no income.
A police source tells Nyheter Idag that there is an ongoing investigation into al-Shammari and his wife.
– Both he and his wife are on welfare, says the police source.
