A suspect linked to an IFAD-funded fraud case has surrendered to the Economic and Organized Crime (EACC) unit, according to local authorities. The individual reported to EACC’s Integrity Centre for processing, following the arrest of nine others implicated in the alleged fraudulent disbursement.
The case involves mismanagement of funds intended for development projects. EACC has called on additional suspects to come forward and report their involvement. Authorities are currently investigating the extent of the financial misconduct.
The surrender marks a step in the ongoing probe into corruption within public sector projects. IFAD, the International Fund for Agricultural Development, has expressed concern over the alleged misuse of its resources.
EACC has not yet released details on the total amount involved or the specific projects affected. The investigation continues as more individuals are expected to cooperate with the anti-corruption body.
