In court documents submitted to a French corruption investigation, Halliburton has admitted it paid $132m to Jeffrey Tesler, a UK lawyer. Mr Tesler's firm, Kaye Tesler, is based on a run down high street in Tottenham, north London.

Mr Tesler would not return calls but his French solicitor admits Mr Tesler received the money, which he said was for advisory and other legitimate fees.

The construction of the Nigerian plant was carried out by a consortium called TSKJ, made up of Technip of France, Snamprogetti of Italy, Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown & Root and the Japan Gas Corporation. After an internal investigation, Halliburton submitted notes of meetings to the French judge showing that Mr Tesler was reappointed by the consortium in 1999 at Halliburton's insistence.

Richard Northmore, a sales manager for MW Kellogg, a Halliburton subsidiary based in Greenford, Middlesex, signed contracts with Mr Tesler for the consortium, according to testimony seen by The Independent on Sunday. Syed Nasser, MW Kellogg's legal director, also acted as counsel to the TSKJ consortium, approving Mr Tesler's role. Bhaskar Patel, a sales and marketing vice-president who works in the Leatherhead office of Kellogg Brown & Root, also worked with Mr Tesler. Mr Northmore and Mr Nasser referred inquiries to Halliburton in the US. Mr Patel, who is understood to be an Africa expert, did not return calls.

First thank you for your courage. Second, I am so focused on another topic right now, that I cannot seem to process anything else. Perhaps you mentioned this elsewhere, but is this the bribe scandal involving Nigeria and several EU countries as well as one Japanese country? I know Cheney is now being looked at in France for bribery charges in Nigeria. But i think this was before you joined them.

The "consortium" that comprised TSKJ was made up of: "Technip, Kellog, Snamprogetti and Japanese gas corporation (TSKJ)."

Kellogg = Kellogg, Brown & Root, a.k.a. Halliburton/KBR

"I know Cheney is now being looked at in France for bribery charges in Nigeria."

That French judge is "onto them," let me tell ya!

"But i think this was before you joined them."

The bribes? Yes.

The coverup? No.
