The Ministry of Liberation War Affairs said on Tuesday that the Directorate of July Mass Uprising is re-verifying the list of July martyrs and July fighters after allegations emerged in media that many were fraudulently getting benefits.
In addition, the ministry will publish an updated gazette, weeding out imposters and taking legal actions against them, says the ministry in a press release.
The ministry said the issue came to their attention after some media outlets published news highlighting the issue.
A gazette, excluding the names of such imposters, had already been published previously, the release stated, adding that the process of verification would continue.
The Ministry of Liberation War Affairs is tasked with preparing the list of July martyrs and July fighters and conducting other activities, including the distribution of allowances.
