The Director of Public Prosecution Noordin Haji has returned the Kemsa file on alleged procurement irregularities to the EACC for further investigations. The DPP said his office had finalised reviewing files of alleged beneficiaries of the alleged scandal at Kemsa and upon review, it emerged that the scope of the investigations was massive. In a statement on Friday, Haji said that his office received the files containing six names of senior officials at Kemsa from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission. “The team identified key areas that need to be sufficiently covered by way of further investigations before a final decision can be made,” Haji said. He continued, “Having carefully analysed the report by the team and considering the requirements for a strong and successful prosecution, I have come to the conclusion that the identified areas should be covered by the EACC.”
