Serbia Holds 38 Officials in Corruption Probe
Serbian investigators arrested 29 police officers and nine customs officials suspected of corruption, abuse of power and taking bribes, the interior ministry said Monday.
Those arrested are suspected of allowing trafficking of goods in exchange for bribes for more than a year around the northern town of Sombor, the ministry added in a statement.
Serbia lies on the so-called Balkans route used by criminals to smuggle people, drugs and weapons to Western Europe.
