5 charged, new raids in Huawei corruption scandal at EU parliament

The Belgian prosecutor's office charged five individuals related to a bribery investigation linked to Huawei on March 18.
Four of the individuals face charges of active corruption and involvement in a criminal organization, while a fifth is charged with money laundering and has been released conditionally.
The alleged corruption occurred discreetly since 2021, disguised as commercial lobbying, involving payments for political stances, gifts, and events.
The European Parliament has cooperated with Belgian authorities in the investigation and imposed a ban on Huawei representatives from its buildings.
