The National Fraud Squad and Anti-Corruption Directorate will resort to take steps to see to it that the Secretary of the Department of Petroleum & Energy, David Manau is compliant to the court orders filed late last year.
It was reported last month that he had provided evidence for the investigators to go through but according to lead investigator, Inspector Leonard Wai, this was not the case.
Inspector Wai admitted that the brief that the Secretary provided did not contain anything with regard to the investigation and it only provided a tabular list of names that had no significance.
Wai stated that everything that was in the brief he provided were only source documents that he already had and is fuming over the actions of Manau.
“It’s just the document that my complainants provided for investigation and a media report. Everything else that was in that brief are things that I have in my files. He just got the files from what my complainant provided.”
This has infuriated the lead investigator and he says he will be looking to resort to other means of acquiring the information.
Wai says he has requested to see internal memo’s or documents that circulated within the office of the Department to find out how the money was moved around and who authorized the release of funds.
