The Meckelnburgh Micrasvision scandal is an ongoing criminal controversy in Meckelnburgh, involving the Royal Meckelnburgh Broadcasting Corporation, a state-owned enterprise of the Kingdom of Meckelnburgh. The RMBC served as the nation's organizing broadcaster for the Microvision Song Contest. Since the 2020 contest, Meckelnburgh had failed every event to submit a representative to Microvision after repeated management blunders.
The scandal escalated from a political embarrassment to criminal conspiracy in Octobre/XII, 1720 AN when Meckelnburgh failed to submit a bid for Micrasvision 2023.
Progression
Popular calls for an investigation of responsible individuals from the RMBC came immediately after failing to submit a representative for the fourth time. By Intercalarie/XV, 1720 AN, a criminal investigation was underway by the Royal Constabulary of Investigation. Early revelations included years of negligent mismanagement, marred by embezzlement. A grand jury was empaneled in Alexandretta on 13 Intercalarie/XV.
On 13 Intercalarie/XV, the RMBC also announced the resignation of Director-General Alister De Vroom, under pressure by Queen Ĉielero III. Meckelnburgh was subsequently permitted to submit a late bid for the 2023 contest by the organizers of Micrasvision 2023. Management of the Micrasvision submission was transferred to the private Meckelnburgh TV, and "Heroes" by David Bowie was entered on 19 Intercalarie/XV.
After the first month of investigation, the Royal Constabulary determined that perpetrators at the RMBC had engaged in a years-long corruption involving the creation of fictitious projects and events. Projects managers would submit fabricated proposals, complete with forged invoices and inflated budgets, and obtain approval for funding from the RMBC. The funds would then be dispersed to scheme middlemen.
By 22 Januarie/I, 1721 AN, fabricated outlays discovered included:
- Documentary residencies in the Siyon Territory for various biological discipline. With Ʀ2 million spent, no productions were ever made.
- An entirely fictitious local television channel in St. Cloud intended to provide community programming with Eastmoorlandish content.
- A multi-year competition for pop-music bands from secondary school students in Hergilsey, with cash prizes. The winners were the same vendors for venue, equipment and other event suppliers.
No arrests have yet been made.
