Canada's Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) on Feb. 19 charged Montreal-based global engineer SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. and its construction and international units with several counts of corruption and fraud related to alleged bribes by long-departed executives of officials in Libya linked to work on infrastructure projects.
These are the first official charges against the firm, with RCMP noting that separate charges already have been brought against "three individuals" who were not named.
