WikiLeaks Cable Hit Tanzania

Today I was reading Subi's Wavuti and came accross this astonishing news about radar scam!

Quoted ......The Tanzanian prosecutor, Edward Hoseah, investigating worldwide misconduct by BAE, Britain's biggest arms company, confided to US diplomats that "his life may be in danger"...

Hoseah met a US diplomat, Purnell Delly, in Dar es Salaam in July 2007, and claimed (unrealistically it turned out) he would be able to prosecute guilty individuals in the BAE case. The US cable reports: "He called the deal 'dirty' and said it involved officials from the Ministry of Defence and at least one or two senior level military officers."

Hoseah spoke gloomily about the prospects for Tanzania's anti-corruption struggle and his original hopes to prosecute the "big fish" of corruption.

"He told us point blank... that cases against the prime minister or the president were off the table ..." The cable then details allegations against former leaders and their inner circles, saying they would be "untouchable".................

Today, is the beginning of the case related to BAE fraud on radar scam. More terrible news are going to be revealed out ....

The Guardian (UK) has more astonishing news
