		The charges, that Tamirat allowed illegal auctions to be carried out and taken 16 million US dollars from Sheik Mohammed Hussein Al Amoudi under the pretext of paying the debt of the Ethiopian Government, have been supported by authentic evidences, the court said.
		The court has also convicted Tamirat of misappropriating the money that was obtained from the sale of illegally exported coffee under his instructions, which also incurred cost on other government offices to pay the debt.
		Tamirat was also held accountable for ordering the relatively "backward states" to sign a 67 million Birr agreement for the purchase of building materials from a company called "PMIS" without the appropriate proforma invoice, it said.

	Some are More Equal than Others
		The humiliating way in which the Prime Minister told the tale of Tamirat's "progressive" sins of corruption and other equally deadly misdemeanors that are in conflict with the high office occupied by the plaintiff were not the only surprises in waiting for the expectant public.
		The most astonishing - and even suicidal - move by Tamirat himself that occurred with the Prime Minister's devastating attack on his longtime ally was followed by a self-destructive confession by Tamirat himself, who willingly corroborated the Prime Minister's accusation, with even more imagery and metaphorical language.
		Despite all this, the arrest of Tamirat has raised speculations that the real reason for his incarceration may be something larger than corruption and concerning disagreements he created with his life-long allies regarding key political issues.
