mozambique: Assistant Attorney-General Speaks On Corruption

Mozambique's Assistant Attorney-General, Isabel Rupia, has urged that any future anti-corruption law should criminalise the trafficking of influence, as well as the undue appropriation of public goods, by civil servants. Speaking at a hearing organised by the Legal Affairs Commission of the Mozambican parliament Rupia said that trafficking in influence was a "very subtle" form of corruption practiced by high ranking public servants.
