The Actions of the OSP in deciding to ascribe names to un- named persons in the Airbus scandal when the American and British investigations decided to out of ethical conduct conceal the identities of such individuals is extremely reckless and tantamount to needless politicization of the investigative process.
Even more so when the OSP’s own investigations confirms no act of wrongdoing on the part of any of those individuals, it is extremely political and of no normative value to name persons who have not committed any crime.
This attempt to smear the former President of an unwarranted corruption tag flies in the face of ethical investigation processes, it undermines rules of law and the fundamental human rights of the persons involved.
The OSP has a responsibility to rise above partisanship and needlessly politicization of the fight against corruption. This is the only way it can instill confidence and public trust in the work of the OSP.
This is extremely shameful and reprehensible!!
