One female employee was picked by the Police yesterday on allegations of being in the ring that double crosses the national carrier. Investigators now believe that the dubious ticket sells has been going for longtime and all people involved are unknown and the real amount missing is unknown too.
Police spokesperson ACP Twahirwa said he was not aware of the case. As RwandAir head of corporate and communication Patrick Manzi responded to Great Lakes Voice in a vague response saying:"nothing confirmed." When asked about the number of the employees under custody he responded that "Not sure."
Sources in RwandAir intimated to Great Lakes Voice that the company and the Police have widen up the investigation to track the network involved in the scandal.
