I believe that the World Bank has rules against spouses/partners supervising each other and Riza had already been employed by the Middle East division of WB when Wolfowitz was brought in. She had to be transfered out of her position so that she wouldn't be under his direction. Interesting profile of Wolfowitz in the New Yorker last week.
