Seychelles licensing official charged over permits

An employee of the Seychelles Licensing Authority faces charges for allegedly distributing driver's permits illegally.

An employee of the Seychelles Licensing Authority has been charged in connection with a suspected case of illegal driver's permit distribution. The authority confirmed the charge against the employee on Saturday.

The Minister responsible for Finance announced that authorities are now only accepting driver's permits in card form, not numerical ones. This change follows the alleged illegal distribution of permits.

The authority is investigating the circumstances surrounding the distribution of permits. Further details on the investigation are expected.
