CFO Natwar Gandhi


The Examiner Newspaper picked this up for Tuesday.

The massive tax office theft uncovered in November cost the D.C. treasury nearly $9 million in fiscal 2007 alone, according to the city’s first concrete account of the scope of the scam.

The Consolidated Annual Financial Report, released Monday by Chief Financial Officer Natwar Gandhi, claims that $8.8 million was taken between Oct. 1, 2006, and Sept. 30, 2007.
