Israeli defense officials caught in major bribery case

Associated Press|
The Justice Ministry said Tuesday it plans to prosecute suspects involved in a serious corruption affair in one of the country's defense bodies.
Most details of the case, including the names of the suspects, were unavailable because of a gag order.
But a statement by the ministry said public servants working in the unnamed defense body allegedly received millions in bribes from companies with the aim of promoting sales deals with Israel's defense establishment.
The suspects are to be charged with bribery, fraud, breach of trust and money laundering, among others offenses, pending a hearing.
