Mozambique’s Central Office for the Fight against Corruption (GCCC) has closed, for lack of evidence, the case it had been investigating regarding the supposedly fraudulent tender for over 500 million meticais (about 7,780 dollars, at the current exchange rate) for the supply of management software for Matola City Council.
According to the Maputo daily “Notícias”, the GCCC magistrates found no criminal evidence in the public tender that culminated in the award “to MCNET & AXIS
Solutions of more than 518 million Meticais for the supply of a municipal management computer system.
“Several civil society organizations had called for an investigation and, consequently, for the process to be annulled, as they felt it was marred by irregularities.
However, six months later, the GCCC concluded that there was no evidence of any criminal acts”, the paper writes.
According to the newspaper, as a result, the Municipality of Matola, under its current mayor, Calisto Cossa, has the legitimacy to proceed with the implementation of the project “Conception, Development and Operationalisation of an Integrated Municipal Management System (SIGEM).”
