A senior official in a security sector is reportedly under scrutiny over the use of fake academic documents. Despite having held a crucial role for years, sources indicate that investigators from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) are poised to act. The official, however, claims to be untouchable and immune to legal action, despite previous probes yielding no results.
In a separate case, another high-ranking official at a state agency may face dismissal due to alleged incompetence. The officer is accused of irregularly approving a major tender awarded to a prominent politician from the opposing political side. The deal has raised tensions, as a favored candidate connected to power corridors was expected to secure the contract. The officer is now under pressure to reverse the decision, or risk being fired.
