12 more govt staff seek to confess graft |
2008-08-20 |
Twelve more government officials have applied to the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) to face the Truth and Accountability Commission (Tac) to seek exemption from prosecution in return for confession of corruption. With them, the number of applicants who are either charged with graft or served notices to submit wealth statements now stands at 29. Contacted, officials at the anti-graft body declined to disclose the applicants' identity. Sources at the ACC said most of the 12 are from the land ministry and of the ranks of registrar and sub-registrar. |
