Algeria is beefing up anti-corruption measures within the all-powerful SONTRACH oil company. The company finds
itself at the heart of a huge corruption scandal involving former officials, including the company's former CEO, his two sons
and several of his associates.
Investigation published on Thursday (February 21st) by the Canadian and Italian press revealing that the Canadian
group SNC Lavalin managed to secure oil contracts from SONATRACH under dubious circumstances. According to the
investigation, bribes were allegedly paid to Algerian officials. They took advantage of their powerful position to secure co
SONTRACH contracts for foreign companies to which they had links, and to acquire property and benefits both in Algeria
and abroad. These serious events led the general prosecutor's office at the court of Algiers to instruct the judge overseeing
the 2011 SONTRACH corruption case to extend the investigation to these reported new dealings. The so-called
"SONATRACH 2" scandal has stirred up indignation among the political class, community groups and civil society in
Algeria.
The Algerian President also broke his silence on Sunday In a message to Algerian workers on the occasion of the
double anniversary of the nationalization of the hydrocarbon industry and the creation of the General Union of Algerian
Workers (UGTA). He said that he could not "allow the scandals recently noted by the press and concerning SONTRACH's
