Oman: More hefty corruption sentences
Muscat’s Court of First Instance delivered more verdicts on 2 March in the string of corruption cases going through the Oman courts. The former managing director of Galfar Engineering & Contracting, Mohammed Ali, who had already been sentenced in January to three years in jail in a separate case, was sentenced to 15 years in prison and a fine of OR1.7m ($4.4m), after being found guilty in five cases. Another official at Galfar, the deputy of the oil sector – unnamed in press reports – was also given 15 years in prison and a fine of OR534,000, for being Mohammed Ali’s accomplice.
