The Justice Secretary has asked the Serious Fraud Office to investigate G4S over its electronic tagging contract after auditors found the security firm and another company had overcharged the Ministry of Justice by "tens of millions of pounds".
Justice Secretary Chris Grayling has said he plans to fight "for every penny" that the Ministry of Justice was allegedly overcharged for electronic tagging services.
Earlier he said that a government-commissioned audit suggested that the incorrect bills ran into the "low tens of millions" and that he would take "all necessary steps" to get a refund for taxpayers.
