The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has said that the investigation into the Road Development Corporation (RDC) scam has now identified the perpetrators.

Briefing the Independent Institutions Committee of the Parliament, ACC Chairman Adam Shamil said the investigation into the case had made significant progress. He stressed that more information about the case will be released.

Shamil said the people involved in the scam, as well as how the money was spent, are now known. The information could not be disclosed at the time as the expenditure of the money was related to another investigation being conducted by the commission.

The fraud, which took place in 2022, deposited a total of MVR 14 million into the personal accounts of three employees of the company. A total of MVR 11 million was deposited in the account of one of them.
