· 1 min read · 272 views

KABUL as a result of waste, fraud and abuse, a federal watchdog reported on Tuesday.

In its latest report, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) said the US Congress had appropriated about $134 billion for Afghan reconstruction programmes since late 2001.

The report says: “Of that amount, SIGAR reviewed approximately $63 billion and concluded that a total of nearly $19 billion, or 30% of the amount reviewed, was lost to waste, fraud, and abuse.”
