BUENOS
AIRES — Carlos Saúl Menem, the former Argentine president, was
convicted and sentenced on Tuesday to more than four years in prison for
overseeing the embezzlement of public funds to pay bonuses to
government officials during his presidency in the 1990s.
A
court in Buenos Aires handed down the sentence of four and a half years
after finding that Mr. Menem had devised a scheme in which money set
aside for an intelligence agency was periodically funneled away to pay
what the prosecution said was a total of $466 million
to ministers and other government workers on top of their regular
salaries, according to local news reports on the case. Mr. Menem was
never accused of taking any of the embezzled funds for himself.
Stand, they will try to make you crawl
and then know what you're saying makes sense at all
