ACB RESTRICTS MINISTRY OF TRANSPORT AND PUBLIC WORKS FROM DEALING WITH CONTRACT FOR DESIGNING, UPGRADING AND REHABILITATION OF THE RAILWAY SECTION BETWEEN MARKA AND BANGULA

Pursuant to its powers under section 23(1) of the Corrupt Practices Act, on 3rd
September 2021, the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) issued a restriction notice to
Ministry of Transport and Public Works on a contract reference number
MTPW/IPDC/DORS/01/2020-2021.

This follows a complaint received by the ACB alleging irregularities and suspected
corruption surrounding the procurement process. The ACB has instituted
investigations into the matter.

Following the restriction notice, the Ministry of Transport and Public Works is
therefore restricted from proceeding with award of the contract until the ACB has
concluded the investigation or lifted the restriction notice.
