Eight people, including three former government officials in Mozambique, three London-based investment bankers formerly with Credit Suisse and two executives of a shipbuilding company headquartered in Abu Dhabi, U.A.E., have been indicted in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York for their alleged involvement in a $2-billion fraud and kickback scheme involving the development of the maritime industry in Mozambique.
