The case of former Chairman of the Maldives Airports Company Limited (MACL) Ibrahim Saleem allowing GMR to deduct a total of USD27 as Airport Development Charge (ADC) and Insurance Fee for every departing passenger at the Ibrahim Nasir International Airport (INIA) has been sent to the Civil Court. MACL stated today that the former chairman had acted in violation of the company’s primary protocol and has to be proved so at court, but no further details of the case was revealed.
Haveeru has learned that the case submitted to the Civil Court last Thursday cited that the former Chairman of MACL Saleem had agreed to allow GMR to deduct USD25 for every passenger using the airport as Airport Development Charge (ADC) and USD2 as insurance fee in the same manner in violation of the company’s basic regulation and without the permission of the Board of Directors.
The Anti Corruption Commission had also recently called on the Attorney General (AG) and MACL to pursue a court case to obtain the USD8 million owed by GMR to MACL in deducted ADC and insurance fees.
MACL had stated earlier that GMR was required to pay USD8,709,428.00 as concession fee including oil concession fee amounting to USD8,428,387.00, but that GMR has so far for the first three months of 2012 paid only USD525,355.00.
