A prominent Italian political figure representing the country in the Council of Europe’s Parliamentary Assembly (PACE) is facing charges over taking bribe from Azerbaijan.
According to La Stampa, the Prosecutor’s Office in Milan accuses Luca Volonte of illegal possession of means and money laundering. Particularly, he has been charged with receiving 2.39 Euros from the company Baktelecom in the period between 2012-2014.
The Italian investigative bodies believe Volonte was given the money for initiating political activities in support of Azerbaijan.
