Another Day, Another Fraud

Berlaymonster has done some fine digging,
Instead of being sacked, Eurocrats are being compensated for fraud, all because the investigating office is useless.
14 EU fonctionnaires investigated for suspected injury benefit fraud have been awarded an extra 3000 euros each from the taxpayer, after it transpired the EU’s fraud watchdog failed to tell the accident-prone civil servants that they were to face criminal proceedings in Italy.
What the flipping heck!
It's all here (in French).
It just makes you wonder, what are OLAF [the EU’s fraud watchdog] for? – Oh yes I remember for chasing down recalcitrant eurosceptics.
OLAF? I nearly cried...

Oh! no, this is certainly no laughing matter.
