KUWAIT CITY: Kuwait’s parliament on Wednesday ordered probes into a $2.5 billion (1.8 billion euro) power plant contract and a deal with Airbus to purchase 25 aircraft and lease 12 others.
Twenty-one MPs out of 36 present approved a proposal to ask the parliament’s legal committee to investigate “all deals” being undertaken by state-owned Kuwait Airways Company (KAC).
MP Adnan Abdulsamad said the probe is “necessary amid reports that the KAC board has turned down cheaper offers,” without providing further details.
