A federal grand jury has indicted the former head of a U.S. construction company on charges of fraud on Army and Navy contracts to build military and humanitarian facilities in Africa, including a maternity ward and school for the deaf, the U.S. Dept. of Justice says.
The 98-count indictment was filed on Oct. 9 in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California. The indictment was announced on Oct. 13 by Robert S. Brewer Jr., U.S. Attorney for the district.
