In the latest chapter in a long federal contracting case, an Egyptian construction company has agreed to pay the U.S. government $1.1 million to settle false-claim charges regarding U.S. Agency for International Development water and wastewater project contracts, the Dept. of Justice says.
In a settlement that DOJ announced on June 13, Misr Sons Development S.A.E.—also called Hassan Allam Sons—resolves allegations that it was awarded U.S. AID contracts in the 1990s that it wasn't entitled to receive, according to the department.
