Frozi Bribed Officials For Housing Project: MP

[Tolo News] Referring to a housing scheme contract with one of the main criminals of Kabul
...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the World and didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either....
Bank which was later cancelled by President Ashraf Ghani
...former chancellor of Kabul University, now president of Afghanistan. Before returning to Afghanistan in 2002 he was a scholar of political science and anthropology. He worked at the World Bank working on international development assistance. As Finance Minister of Afghanistan between July 2002 and December 2004, he led Afghanistan's attempted economic recovery until the Karzais stole all the money. ..
, a member of Parliament claimed on Sunday that senior government officials were bribed by Khalilullah Frozi in order to get the project.
"Khalilullah Frozi has been involved in frauds and bribery in the past and this time once again he bribed the officials," MP Naqibullah Faiq said.
After mounting criticism of government over a controversial housing scheme project, President Ashraf Ghani on Saturday issued a decree invalidating the contract recently signed with Frozi, a bankrupt debtor of Kabul Bank.
Frozi was freed from prison last week on Wednesday to take part in the inaugural of "Smart City Township" project he signed with the Ministry of Urban Development.
At the inaugural ceremony of the project worth $900 million USD, the government officials said the program was aimed at helping the debtors to become able to repay their obligations.
However after serious pressures on the government, Ghani eventually decreed the cancelation of the contract.
But the legal experts and a number of MPs raised questions on how the government can give a project to a criminal.
The legal experts call the move unlawful and a violation of Criminal Law of Afghanistan.
"It's a distressing issue and the problem is that there is lack of knowledge of law," legal expert Nasrullah Stanekzai. "The article 113 of the Criminal Law doesn't allow such a thing happen."
However after the cancellation of the contract, Ghani ordered a thorough investigation of the contract signed with Frozi -- who was sentenced to 10 years in jail in a court verdict last November. He was found guilty in embezzlement of over $900 million in cash and assets of Kabul Bank -- collapsed in 2010.
