Anti-Corruption Chief Calls Interior Ministry for Reforms

(Tbilisi, December 21, 2002. Civil Georgia) – Secretary of the Anti-Corruption Bureau Kakha Ugulava called Interior Minister Koba Narchemashvili for the urgent reform in the ministry.

The National Security Council discussed today the activity of the law enforcement agencies.

Ugulava said that the law enforcement bodies do not implemented recommendations of the Anti-Corruption Bureau.

“Before the appointment on the post of the Interior Minister [last November], you vowed to carry out fundamental reform in the ministry, but nothing has been done so far,” Kakha Ugulava told the Minister at the National Security Council’s meeting.

Koba Narchemashvili responded that extreme lack of finances hinders reforms.

The Interior Ministry is one of the most corrupted governmental bodies in the country.
