European Parliament offices searched in Qatar corruption scandal investigation – BBC News

Belgian investigators have searched offices at the European Parliament in Brussels, as part of an investigation into alleged bribes from World Cup hosts Qatar.

It was the 20th search carried out since Friday and the parliament president, Roberta Metsola, warned MEPs that "democracy is under attack".

Belgian police have charged four people, among them European Parliament Vice-President Eva Kaili, a Greek MEP.

Qatar has denied any wrongdoing and Ms Kaili's lawyer says she is innocent.
