UPDATED DECEMBER 2010
A BAE Systems insider from the AL-Yamamah and AL-Salam Projects in Saudi Arabia is supplying internal BAE, Saudi, and UK MOD documents to the US Department of Justice (DoJ) which is carrying out an investigation into alleged corruption.
The samples we have seen include correspondence between high-ranking officers in the British and Saudi military responsible for administering the Al-Yamamah oil-for-arms barter deal.
One example is a letter marked”SECRET” from Brigadier General Prince Turki Bin Nasser Bin Abdul Aziz, Royal Saudi Air Force Al-Yamamah Project Officer, to a MOD Air Marshal within Project Al-Yamamah.
Extract from a Guardian newspaper article “Prince Turki: The man with everything“:
“The man who allegedly received most from BAE’s £60m slush fund, Turki bin Nasser, is a rich man. He has nearly 200 classic cars, a £20m private Boeing business jet, a large yacht called the Sarah, a sumptuous mansion in Beverly Hills and houses in Barcelona, Riyadh, Dharan and London. His London home is in Sussex Square, near Hyde Park.”
