It is turning out that a top director of the AMERI Group that the government has entered into a deal with for the supply of gas generators towards solving the protracted power crisis is a wanted man.
The Pakistani-born Norwegian, Umar Farooq Zahoor, is currently being pursued by authorities in Norway together with Interpol for organised crime, including money laundering.
Incidentally, Umar Farooq is the person leading the AMERI deal which recently brought in the generators to Takoradi where they are being installed.
The story was first published by popular Norwegian news outlet Verdens Gang (VG) last Saturday, giving graphic details about the generators deal and how the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government officials, including Power Minister Dr Kwabena Donkor, are involved in what the paper says is fraud being perpetrated on Ghanaians.
