Dozens of US former emergency service workers have been arrested in a
sweeping fraud investigation involving federal disability benefits, New York
authorities say.
Prosecutors say 72 police officers, eight firefighters and five corrections
officers are among those charged.
Some reportedly falsely claimed disabling conditions arising from the 11
September 2001 attacks.
The fraud is believed to have cost hundreds of millions of dollars.
“The brazenness is shocking,” Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance said
on Tuesday.
“Many participants cynically manufactured claims of mental illness as a
result of September 11, dishonouring the first responders who did serve
their city at the expense of their own health and safety,” he added. | c*****g
