(Oklahoma City-AP) -- A state grand jury investigating allegations of kickbacks at the Oklahoma Tax Commission issued a sealed indictment today.

Attorney General Drew Edmondson says the indictment should be unsealed later this week.

The investigation centers on bribery allegations involving Tax Commission employees and service agents.

Former commission employee Billy Bruce Babers was ordered to stand trial Monday for threatening a witness. Babers allegedly threatened to kill the witness if he cooperated with the investigation.
