Billions in U.S. aid diverted from Pakistan army
An Associated Press probe finds that between 2002 and 2008 only 500 million of 6.6 billion in U.S. aid reached Pakistan's military. Funds were siphoned to subsidies and the domestic economy, hampering helicopters, night vision gear, and training. Generals and ministers cite gaps in oversight and accountability while Musharraf era actions enabled misallocation.
