 Three former ministers were yesterday recommended for sanction following a House investigation into the tendering of the controversy-wracked Shs200 billion national Identity Cards project to M/s Muhlbauer of Germany.

MPs want Mr Kirunda Kivejinja (Internal Affairs), former Attorney General Kiddhu Makubuya and former State Minister for ICT, Mr Alintuma Nsambu, punished for their role in the disputed deal.

In a report presented the House Defence Committee chairperson, Mr Simon Mulongo (Bubulo East), Mr Kivejinja, Mr Makubuya and the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Internal Affairs, Mr Stephen Kagoda, reportedly flouted procurement laws.

The report calls for an investigation into Mr Nsambu’s trip to Germany.
