More than 2,000 companies from around the world, including such names as DaimlerChrysler, Volvo Construction, Siemens and Weir Group plc, the Scottish engineering company, paid illicit kickbacks to Iraq allowing the regime of Saddam Hussein to sabotage the oil-for-food programme of the United Nations and pocket $1.8bn (£1bn) in illegal profits, it emerged yesterday.

A catalogue of companies implicated in the scandal was included in the final report into corruption in the $64bn humanitarian programme, released yesterday by Paul Volcker, a former chairman of the Federal Reserve. "Iraq's largest source of income from the programme came from kickbacks paid by companies it selected to receive contracts for humanitarian goods," the report said.

and the plot thickens.
