The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has launched investigations into a suspected case of money laundering in the Nairobi County Government.
In a letter addressed to the County Secretary, the DCI said the county government is alleged to have fraudulently made payments to nine companies for services not rendered. The investigators requested several documents to facilitate the probe.
The county government is also required to provide tender documents including but not limited to tender invitation, preparations and submissions, opening and evaluation, and tender committee minutes.
Further, the DCI asked to be furnished with award of contracts including contract preparations, deliveries made and inspections including documentation accounting for any receipt of goods as well as records of LPO’s issued and all payment vouchers made to the implicated companies.
