U.S. intensifies its oil-food inquiry
Article Abstract:
Three businessmen are accused of paying kickbacks to the Iraqi government in a United States criminal investigation of United Nations oil-for-food initiative. The bribery effectively robbed the United Nations program of money allocated for humanitarian aid. David Chalmers, Ludmil Dionissiev and John Irving (who is still at large) are being investigated as well as Tongsun Park, a South Korean unregistered agent of Iraq accused of bribing a United Nations official.
