Shakira's suegro in trouble
19:03 H | Topics: Argentina - Justice - Politics
The iron fist of justice is coming down on former Argentine president Fernando De la Rúa (a.k.a. Shakira's boyfriend's dad) and the charges are anything but light: five counts of manslaughter and injuries to hundred of protesters, for starters.
Though it's not yet a formal indictment -- the courts are still trying to ascertain who was responsible for the acts of repression which left citizens dead or injured in December 2001 -- Argentine judge Claudio Bonadío has ordered the 6.2 million dollars of De la Rúa's assets be frozen.
According to Reuters, if the case is approved by a higher court it will go to trial. It will be interesting to see, if that does happen, whether or not Antonio De la Rúa, a close advisor to his father, will also be asked to testify.
