Businessman Abdul Karim Batatawala has arrived at Blantyre Magistrate’s Court where he is expected to be formally charged.
Batatawala was arrested last week in relation to suspected corrupt practices in procurement contracts of uniforms and other accessories at the Department of Immigration and Citizenship Services between 2009 and 2012.
The court failed to hear the application last Friday following a preliminary objection by the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) on grounds that it was served late with the application files.
Batatawala is shunning cameras; making moves aimed at hiding his face.
