Four people have been arrested and formally charged in the investigation into the suspected corruption scandal in the EU Parliament. The persons are suspected of having received bribes from Qatar to give the country advantages in various matters.
Among those singled out in the suspected bribery scandal with links to Qatar is the Greek member of parliament Eva Kaili, who is also one of the parliament’s deputy speakers. However, it is unclear whether she is one of those who are still detained.
Qatar denies any involvement in the suspected bribery offence.
