Trio charged with scamming Defense Ministry for millions
Three alleged fraudsters have been charged with bilking the Defense Ministry of almost NIS 10 million, supposedly to care for a quadriplegic IDF veteran.
The three Jerusalem residents, a couple and another woman, are accused of creating fictitious caretakers for the veteran and charging the ministry for the care provided but pocketing the money instead, Army Radio reports.
The scam ran for about a decade, according to the Ynet news website.
