Nine doctors were
arrested in this Sicilian city Monday on suspicion of backing
fraudulent disability claims involving dozens of people.
Police made a total of 17 arrests in the investigation,
dubbed 101 Dalmations because of the number of people probed.
The probe was said to have uncovered a network of doctors
and medical technicians suspected of facilitating the false
claims.
Two others who were listed for arrest, a doctor and a
radiologist, are deceased.
