Russia has charged former Deputy Defence Minister Pavel Popov with fraud amid a broad arrest of military officials. Investigators allege Popov embezzled while supervising the construction of Patriot Park near Moscow. This case is part of what appears to be a purge of corrupt military figures. Popov is linked to properties worth 500 million rubles.
