| [Quqnoos] A top official in the High Office of Oversight and Anti-corruption highlighted the motive that corrupt officials haven't been trailed is their influence in judiciary institutions. Specific mechanisms will be planned to monitor the works of Afghan judiciary institutions, the High Office of Oversight and Anti-corruption said. "This is a fact that some corrupt officials in a way have connections with different political parties, and this has made the process slow," said Deputy High Office of Oversight and Anti-corruption, Mohammad Qasim Ludin. Lack of a special court to trail the Afghan corrupt ministers is also one of the reasons they haven't been trailed, officials said. "We certainly believe that corruption exists in the Afghan judiciary institutions," said Mohammad Qasim Ludin. The High Office of Oversight and Anti-corruption underscored that financial section, budget expenditures and appointment of high ranking government officials are believed to be faced with corruption threats. |
