6 leaders of Orthodox NGOs arrested on suspicion of fraud

Six people were arrested and four were held for questioning Sunday after central unit investigators in Jerusalem, in cooperation with the fraud unit, raided three offices of Orthodox-run educational non-profit organizations that are suspected of deceiving the government of ten of millions of shekels in recent years.
