DAR ES SALAAM, Dec 21 (Reuters) - Tanzania's anti-corruption chief feared for his life and believed lack of political will was undermining the fight against graft in the country, leaked U.S. cables from its embassy in Dar es Salaam showed on Tuesday. A July 2007 cable published by WikiLeaks showed that Edward Hoseah, director general of the Prevention and Combating of Corruption Bureau (PCCB), told the deputy chief of mission at the U.S. Embassy, Purnell Delly, he would seek asylum if death threats against him increased. Hoseah noted "President (Jakaya) Kikwete's reluctance to implicate former President Benjamin Mkapa or members of Mkapa's inner circle in corruption scandals," the cable reported. "Kikwete is soft on Mkapa. He does not want to set a precedent by going after his predecessor." The confidential cable, released on Dec. 19, quoted the anti-graft chief saying Kikwete did not appear comfortable letting the law handle corruption cases that might implicate top level officials. "Finally, Hoseah reiterated deep concern about his personal safety, explaining that he frequently received threatening letters. In the event of increasing threats to his life, Hoseah said he would not hesitate to seek refuge in another country." PCCB has been reluctant to investigate any corruption allegations against top-level government, both past and present. Hoseah said in a statement that the U.S. diplomat had misquoted his statements. "What I told the U.S. diplomat was that President Kikwete does not intend to allow the prosecution of senior government officials or anybody else for that matter based on weak evidence," Hoseah said in a media statement. He confirmed that he had been receiving threating messages, but denied considering seeking refuge outside the country. Hoseah, whose PCCB has been investigating the sale of an air traffic control system by BAE Systems to Tanzania, described the transaction as a "dirty" deal.
He told the U.S. diplomat in 2007 he would be able to prosecute guilty individuals in the BAE case, but has since failed to take the case to court. Donors slashed funding pledges for Tanzania's 2010/11 budget by nearly a quarter of a billion dollars due to concerns about corruption and the slow pace of reforms in the country.
