Public Radio of Armenia on 3rd December reported that Armenian universities have rushed to refute the reports on their involvement in a corruption scheme that saw a number of Israeli Arab doctors granted “false” diplomas. Israel Police arrested 40 doctors, medical interns and pharmacists from the Arab sector who presented false credentials to the Health Ministry, Israeli sources report. They are suspected of presenting graduation diplomas from universities in Armenia, even though the police allege they did not complete the required studies there.
