Pretty slick on the part of the FBI.
LAS VEGAS -- An FBI undercover operation has resulted in 22 arrests, all but one of those arrests took place in Las Vegas.
The Department of Justice says 22 executives and employees of companies in the military and law enforcement products industry are accused of bribing foreign government officials.
"Corrupt payments to foreign officials to obtain or retain business erode public confidence in our free market system and threaten to undermine foreign governments," said U.S. Attorney Channing Phillips. "These indictments set forth serious allegations and reflect the Department's commitment to aggressively investigate and prosecute those who try to advance their businesses through foreign bribery."
The indictments allege that the defendants engaged in a scheme to pay bribes to the minister of defense for a country in Africa.
