Brazil crisis: Rousseff to sue senator over corruption claims

Brazil crisis: Rousseff to sue senator over corruption claims

20 March 2016



Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff has said she will take legal action against a senator who has accused her of involvement in corruption at the state oil company Petrobras.

Senator Delcidio Amaral said the president knew of wrongdoings and tried to block investigations.

Ms Rousseff has denied any involvement.

Meanwhile, the new justice minister has threatened to remove teams from the Petrobras inquiry if any more material is leaked to the press.
