Corruption and security
‘I have to admit, corruption [has] existed… Some
brigades of the army, the numbers should be
many thousands. But in reality, because of many thousands. But in reality, because of
corruption, the real number is 1,000 or 1,500.
And the rest are fictitious names just to get
salaries.’
