MOSCOW. May 26 (Interfax-AVN) - Russian Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov has ordered inspections in the Armed Forces to expose possible corruption of commanders.
"The Russian defense minister has ordered spot checks in military units, if necessary with the participation of military prosecutors, in order to rule out illegal taking of money by commanders of the Russian Armed Forces from their subordinates," a source at the Defense Ministry press office told Interfax-AVN on Thursday.
