Algeria To Host International Conference On Role Of Civil Society In Fighting Corruption

During the meeting of its Executive Office at the end of last week, the International Security Organization against Corruption chose Algeria as the host of the next international conference on combating corruption, under the title “The role of civil society in fighting corruption, as well as the rights and duties of informants”.

The organization has appointed the Algerian lawyer and human rights lawyer, Djamila Izghouti Arezki Ben Hakou, as a member of it, in addition to the representative Abdelkrim Lafouala, head of civil society associations based in Constantine, eastern Algeria.

The Executive Office of the World Security Organization to Combat Corruption decided to establish a special legal service that is responsible for external management and monitoring of the Libyan crisis file, and on this basis Hussein Abd Rabbo Saleh was appointed as the head of the cell, which is made up of 7 members including the Algerians, lawyer Djamila Izghouti and Abdelkrim Lafouala, as Izghouti is one of 4 women, being included in the monitoring cell.

The Executive Office confirmed the appointment of Ahmed Abu Bakr Milad, as the representative of the International Security Organization to Combat Corruption, in Libya.

At the present time, the organization gave priority to setting up a unit responsible for studying the possibilities of assistance in combating the “Covid 19” pandemic and establishing the Events Section, such as conferences and seminars.

Lawyer Djamila Izghouti stressed that the International Security Organization against Corruption adopted a plan to continue its work at the time of Corona virus pandemic, with a whole raft of measures that allow it to contain all the different scenarios of the health-related crisis, especially in Libya, and to preclude a further deterioration of the situation there.

Lawyer, Djamila Izghouti, told “Echorouk” that her choice as a member of this organization, and a member of the Special Administration and Monitoring Unit of the Libyan crisis file, will give her an opportunity to express her opinion and offer appropriate solutions regarding this last file, which the President of the Republic, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, made the priority in his first speech, on account of the severity of the crisis now gripping Libya in light of the Corona virus pandemic, adding that the biggest corruption file is the issue of this country, because of its political, economic and security dependencies, and its direct impact on the Maghreb and Algeria in the first place.
