Macedonia: Police Arrested in Accident Scam
Interior Minister Gordana Jankulovska on Wednesday said the alleged scam, using damaged cars to stage new accident scenes, has cost insurance companies at least (euro) 30,000 ($39,000) in bogus claims.
The suspects were charged with multiple counts of fraud-related offenses.
Jankulovska says arrest warrants have been issued for two other suspects, while another 26 people are being investigated for possible participation in the scam.
