A file on former Speaker Anita Among has reportedly been forwarded to the Directorate of Public Prosecutions for review as part of the ongoing corruption investigations at Parliament and other government agencies.
A multi-agency corruption probe launched two months ago has zeroed in on Parliament, with former Speaker Anita Among listed among the principal subjects.
The investigation, authorized by President Museveni, is still examining allegations of money laundering and illicit enrichment.
In recent weeks, detectives from the Criminal Investigations Directorate and forensic experts, with support from Defence Intelligence and Security operatives, searched properties linked to Among.
The raided premises include residences in Nakasero, Kigo, Ntinda and Bukedea. The raids also involved the seizure of her vehicles.
After wrapping up the first phase of the probe, CID Director Major Tom Magambo reportedly handed the Parliament report to President Museveni.
A meeting with the President in turn reportedly resolved that the IGG join the final phase of the investigation to close evidence gaps before the DPP acted.
Sources close to the investigation said the joint teams have completed work on outstanding aspects of cases related to former Speaker Among. A completed case file has since been forwarded to the Directorate of Public Prosecutions for review and guidance on charges.
