The bribery question posed must be seen as damaging

Dear Editor,

It must be seen as damaging and damning the bribery question posed to the high ranking official in the echelon of power.  It raises motive, and might be a blot on the integrity of the official, and can be seen as a stain on all members, painted with the same brush. The high ranking official must erase this doubt and suspicion which is fodder for those waiting in the wings.

Sincerely,

Shamshun Mohamed
