Subject: Re:response
From: Mr. Albert Mukta
Dear Sir/ Madam,
This correspondence is conveyed to you with the intention that it is regarded with the strictest level of confidence.
I am a high level official with the Sudanese Ministry of Finance. I am withholding my names and designation on account of the degree of confidentiality associated with the information contained herein. As you may already know Sudan has undergone a 21 year old civil war which has ravaged and deprecated her resources. The recent tales of Darfur depicted in the international press is an indication of how some regions in Sudan have been denigrated.
This led the president Omar al-Bashir led government to seek ways of raising both human and capital development, and also extending the infrastructure network within Sudan. On Jan 22, 2006, in Khartoum, Sudan signed a document to join the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) which is affiliated to the New Partnership for Development in Africa (NEPAD). By joining the APRM, Sudan will be under its monitoring and will allow its mechanism to conduct the political, economic and environmental studies of the Sudan state.
You may make references to the following web sites to get more substantial information on the foregoing.

THE APRM AND NEPAD
The African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) is an instrument voluntarily acceded to by Member States of the African Union as an African self–monitoring mechanism. A Panel of Eminent Persons (APR Panel) made up of between 5-7 eminent persons will be appointed to oversee the review process to ensure the integrity of the process, to consider review reports an d to make recommendations to the APR Forum. A Country Review Team (APR Team) will be appointed to visit the country
to review progress with the county’s Programme of Action, as envisaged in paragraph 13 of the APRM base document, and produce the APRM report on the country. I have taken the pain to explain the procedure above to aid your understanding of the contents stated herein.
Sequel to Sudan’s joining of the ARPM, Sudan obtained a facility in the sum of $400m (US Dollars) from the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and African Development Bank (ADB), to help the development of infrastructure in the war ravaged region of Darfur. The credit which was obtained vide a project finance scheme which had some ministries and the presidency involved, has a condition precedent to the grant- that the ARPM monitors the development of the project in line with the blueprint approved. This is obviously to control the cost of monitoring which may accrue to the agencies should they undertake the monitoring and also to check corruption.
At this juncture the scenario changes. The project sum was inflated as a result of over invoicing and subsequently bid rigging, during the process leading up to the valuation of the credit. The excess is in the sum of $20m as it is envisaged that $380m would cover the cost of the project. A closely knit clique within government circles hereby seeks to reroute this excess through private accounts.
What we require is a private account that this sum would be remitted to. The transaction we envisage would be discreet and an option is for the fund custodians to pay the sum representing yields from hedge funds. A watertight plan that would avert the oversight functions of the ARPM has been put in place. We have contacted the relevant officials of the APR team who are interested in retaining a stake of the excess after it has been dispersed in the close circuit I have explained in the preceding paragraph.
We intend from the onset to be very forthright, and what we propose as the distribution formula is represented hereunder:
APR team- 30%;
Private Account Holder- 30%;
Government Clique- 40%
Kindly regard the foregoing information with the most discreet measures. You should also understand that you are not under any obligation to commit your account details.
Should you however deem this proposition feasible, you may contact me
through this email address. muktaalbert@netscape.net
Best Regards,
Albert Mukta
