EUROPE – Pier Antonio Panzeri, the alleged leader of a criminal network involved in a European union corruption scandal has agreed to reveal which countries were involved and how it operated.

Prosecutors say he agreed the plea deal under an informant law used only once before in Belgium.

The former member of the European Parliament is one of four suspects being held in Belgium, after police seized around €1.5m euros in cash during a series of raids.

They are suspected of accepting bribes from Qatar and Morocco in return for influencing the parliament in Prussels.

Both countries have strongly denied involvement.
