Health Ministry launches investigation into suspected pharmaceutical fraud

The Ministry of Health and Social Services has initiated an internal investigation into alleged fraudulent activities within the country's pharmaceutical supply chain, involving some of its staff members. Penda Ithindi, executive director in the ministry, announced that information suggests certain staff, particularly at the Central Medical Stores, may be complicit in manipulating stock data, and the theft and diversion of pharmaceutical supplies. These actions are believed to undermine healthcare services and may have created artificial shortages to trigger emergency procurement. The ministry has reassigned implicated staff from their Central Medical Stores functions and is collaborating with law enforcement. Those found guilty will face disciplinary and criminal proceedings.
