Following the recent revelation that Assistant Accountant General, Moses Moreri has been charged with corruption, it turns out that Permanent Secretary to the President (PSP) Emma Peloetletse and the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Crime (DCEC) cleared him of any wrongdoing a month earlier, Mmegi has established.

In a statement last week the DCEC revealed that Moreri had been charged with abuse of public office, contrary to section 24A (1) and conflict of interest contrary to section 31 (1) (b) of the Corruption and Economic Crime Act (Cap. 08:05). The matter involves a tender worth P12.5 million.
