MONTREAL — Still reeling from accusations its investigators fabricated evidence, the province’s once-praised anti-corruption police unit is again the target of criticism. Corbo’s report doesn’t directly address the recent scandals, citing ongoing probes by prosecutors and an independent police watchdog.

But the fight against corruption “requires the use of diversified skills related to several academic disciplines,” he said.
