ANNOUNCED AFTER VOTING

The detention of 5 people, including Kaili, who was accused of lobbying on behalf of Qatar, which hosted the World Cup, and influencing parliamentary decisions, created a shock effect in Brussels. Kaili, 44, a Socialist Member of Parliament from Greece, served as the European Parliament’s Vice-President for Middle East relations. Kaili was removed from her post in a vote in the European Parliament yesterday.

MONEY FROM HOME

While the decision on Kaili’s arrest is expected to be made today, Belgian and Greek media also shared new information with the public. Le Soir, one of Belgium’s most widely read newspapers, reported that together with Kaili, more than 1.5 million euros came from the house of former Italian MP Pier Antonio Panzeri. The newspaper also announced that only 600 thousand euros came out of Panzeri’s house.
