Sadoun Al-Dulaimi was named as one of the people responsible for the fall of the Iraqi city of Mosul to advancing ISIS forces in June of 2014. Al-Dulaimi was found responsible in a report compiled by the Parliamentary Committee for Security and Defense, a subcommittee of the Iraqi parliament, commissioned by then Prime Minister Haider Al-Abadi. The report blames former Iraq PM and other senior officials for fall of Mosul and names Al-Dulaimi as the third person named after Nouri Al-Maliki and Atheel al-Nujaifi, the governor of Nineveh province at the time.
