    Former Goa CM interrogated on Louis Berger case
    Credits:
  • The Crime Branch of Goa police and the Enforcement Directorate interrogated the former Goa Chief Minister Digambar Kamat today.

    This was in relation to bribery and corruption evidence against the former CM with Louis Berger, a New Jersey-based company.

    The interrogation is based on a charge sheet filed in an anti-corruption court last year, which implicated him and the then PWD Minister Churchill Alemao.

  • The Louis Berger case came into picture when a New Jersey based company admitted to a US Court about paying bribes to certain Goa officials to win over a contract.

    The contract was awarded for a water project that was funded by the Japan International Co-operation Agency.

    The company paid over Rs.6 crore as bribes for being awarded the Rs.1,031 crore water project.

    They also filed a charge sheet which implicated Kamat and his accomplices of conducting covert meetings, wherein huge amounts of money had been given to the parties involved.
