"Investigations established that government officials flouted all procurement rules and abused their oath of office to ensure the scheme went through," said Haji.
He pointed to the awarding of the contract to Italian firm CMC di Ravenna in a manner that he said flouted proper procurement procedures, and despite financial woes that forced the company into liquidation and had led to it failing complete three other mega-dam projects. According to the contract, the project was to cost a total of $450 million , but the treasury had increased this amount by $164 million"without regard to performance or works," said Haji.Another $6 million was paid out for the resettlement of people living in areas that would be affected by the project, but there is no evidence of land being acquired for this, the chief prosecutor said.
"I am satisfied that economic crimes were committed and I have therefore approved their arrests and prosecutions," said Haji.
I wish this can happen here at home. Police must arrest all corrupt ANC officials who have been stealing money all these years instead of delivering services.
Job well done
