FRANKFURT (Reuters) - German authorities on Tuesday arrested three people, including a former senior manager of Frankfurt airport operator Fraport, on suspicion of having accepted bribes for building permits at the airport.

The Frankfurt prosecutor's office said more than 200 police raided addresses across Germany and the Alpine principality of Liechtenstein, where they suspect the funds were hidden, as part of a probe into 10 people suspected of bribery, embezzlement, fraud, money laundering and tax evasion.
