EU parliament votes to sack vice president over Qatar bribe claim

Description

The European Parliament in Strasbourg votes to strip Greek socialist MEP Eva Kaili of her status as vice president as part of efforts to restore its credibility amid allegations of corruption linked to World Cup host Qatar. In a first reaction since she was charged in a Belgian anti-graft probe, Kaili's lawyer declared that she was innocent and "has nothing to do with Qatar's bribes". IMAGES
