Symbion Power, today brushed off what it described as fraudulent
and grossly exaggerated claims by a Dubai based firm, Rental Services and
Solutions and it’s associated sub suppliers.
Speaking from Washington DC, Symbion Senior Vice President of
Communications and Public Affairs Adi Raval said “ This is actually
a tax matter. This company and it’s sub suppliers were working as a
subcontractor to Symbion for 3 years from 2011 to 2014. During that time none
of them paid the Tanzania government a single dollar of tax, as they are
required to by law”.
He continued “ This
company maintained a presence in Tanzania and they had expatriate and local
staff based in Arusha, Dodoma and Dar es Salaam. The law requires
that they pay taxes and they have not done that. We have withheld tax from
payments to them and we have paid that money to the Tanzania Revenue Authority.
When they produce a certificate that shows they have paid their taxes to the
TRA we will release further payment to them”.
