[Ynet News] Ali Waked - PA Finance Ministry senior official Yusef al-Zumur has been arrested for illegally transferring yearly salaries to 3,500 members of the Hamas security forces. The incident was proof of unauthorized cooperation between senior Fatah officials and Hamas. It appears that the case is a criminal one and Hamas bribed Finance Ministry workers to attain the money. One of the main sources of the money which reached Hamas was the roughly $400 million in taxes that Israel transferred to the PA. The U.S. and Europe have also renewed the flow of money to the PA. Officials in Jerusalem said they viewed the incident with great severity. "It was promised to Israel that the money would not reach Hamas," an official said. 2007-08-10 01:00:00Full Article
