Corruption: Brazil’s Ex-president Jailed For Nearly 9 Years by 9jahotblog: 8:02am On Jun 04, 2023
Brazil’s Supreme Court sentenced former president Fernando Collor de Mello to eight years and 10 months in prison for corruption on Wednesday, part of the fallout from the country’s sweeping Car Wash graft investigation.

The high court had convicted Collor of taking 20 million reais ($4 million) in bribes as a senator from 2010 to 2014 in exchange for arranging contracts for a construction company with a subsidiary of state-run oil company Petrobras.

President
Collor
Collor, 73, who led Brazil from 1990 to 1992, was already a tarnished figure in Brazilian politics: the country’s first democratically elected president after the 1964-1985 military dictatorship, he resigned from that office to avoid impeachment, also over corruption allegations.

Earlier this month, Supreme Court’s justices had found him guilty of corruption and money laundering in the Petrobas case in an eight-to-two ruling.

The lead judge on the case, Edson Fachin, had recommended a sentence of 33 years.

The facts in the trial are “extremely serious” and “portray the nefarious misuse of public functions for personal and patrimonial promotion,” Fachin said on Wednesday.

In his vote, Fachin said “the then-senator used his political-partisan influence to promote appointments to the board of directors” of Petrobas subsidiary Distribuidora “and create facilities for the establishment of contracts,” according to the court’s official website.

The money laundering was carried out through more than 40 deposits in accounts in Collor’s name, and in 65 accounts of companies owned by him.

Natajo2021:
Obi life is so bitter.
Tell him there is a chance for him in Alaigbo.
Atiku thought he was very rich to buy yesterday, he failed.
Tinubu hassle hard, and never gave up,today he is the president of FRN.
Osinbajo thought he was so smart and almost outsmarted his benefactor. What a Judais Iscariot cannot do does not exist.
Amechi Rotimi thought he could occupied the seat of power by exchanging the developmental programs meant for his people for the people of North West. All he got was a title called "Trusted Son of Daura" Today he has suddenly turned to a musician. Emergency gospel 🎶 🎵 Musician.
Aregbesola believes by associating with the cabals ,he could demarket his benefactor and the president of Nigeria.
Mai Mala Buni thought by temporarily and fraudulently hijacked the party from Osiomole, would frustrate the PBAT and denied him the APC ticket. Alas, he failed.
Malami and Emefiele thought by dinning with the cabals would denied PBAT his God's destined victory. Alas, they failed.
The pentecostal pastors and fake prophets prophesied death ,sickness and fake victory for Obi, they all failed together.
God is not a man. He destined PBAT to mount the throne of Nigeria. The forces of evil and anti-subsidies removal would never prevail, Amen.
God indeed has the final says.
May God favour us, same way he poured his favour on Asiwaju, and may all our enemies failed the same way the cabals, the Obi-diots, the Athiefkus failed. WON TI LULE.
your type usually die poor.your mentality is too low. I can bet anything that you won't benefit more than any other ordinary person in this part-time government. SPITS. ..
4m $ which our Nigerian politicians will spend in one shopping.
Nigeria is still redeemable. The last election has shown that Nigerians are finally awake. They now know what they want and the next step is getting it.
Don't mind yakubu and his careless selection. Don't mind the stupid slaves that keep singing the praise of their oppressors just like this one
here. Nigeria can be great again.
