PENTAGON LIFTS BAN

Summary

The Pentagon, reversing itself, has lifted a payment ban ordered by Defense Secretary Frank Carlucci because evidence does not show the contracts valuing nearly $1 billion were tainted by fraud. The decision to lift the ban resulted from ``a detailed Navy review of each affected program and contract in light of the information contained in the unsealed affidavit,'' the Pentagon said.
