Were civil servants who never declared wealth punished?

Editor, Recently, The New Times reported that about 180 civil servants had failed to declare their wealth despite repeated pleas. What happened to these people? Were they punished for violating the wealth declaration law? Personally, I believe this should be the last thing one would expect from civil servants who are supposed to protect the laws and serve as role models in society.

Editor,

Recently, The New Times reported that about 180 civil servants had failed to declare their wealth despite repeated pleas.

What happened to these people? Were they punished for violating the wealth declaration law? Personally, I believe this should be the last thing one would expect from civil servants who are supposed to protect the laws and serve as role models in society.

Let us enforce the culture of accountability in our country.
