Article by May 15, 2021
A high-level investigation has been launched into claims of corruption and fraud in the region’s primary financial development lending institution based in Barbados.
Barbados TODAY has learnt that the probe is being conducted at the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) by its Integrity Compliance and Accountability (ICA) arm, an independent office within the bank in relation to a multimillion-dollar road project in Antigua and Barbuda that’s financed by CDB.
However, investigations by this media house revealed that the ICA has declined to probe certain claims and complaints submitted by contractor Kenrick Dookie regarding the scheme known as the Second Road Infrastructure Rehabilitation Project (SRIRP).
