Quebec anti-corruption unit descends on Public Security Department offices
QUEBEC – It appears that nobody is safe from the province’s anti-corruption squad, not even their own bosses.
Investigators descended on the Public Security Department today, the same department which oversees police forces including the anti-corruption unit known as UPAC.
The unit was interested in a warehouse in Quebec City that housed the department’s old office furniture and computer equipment.
A second seizure was also conducted at a Quebec City computer firm, which serves a number of government departments.
The Public Security Department confirmed the seizures in a statement and said it would co-operate with the unit’s investigation, which the department says began after a complaint was filed in 2013.
The unit did not wish to comment.
