Conviction of Italian former MP Luca Volonte for corruption. Sentence: 4 years prison, confiscation of EUR 2.39 million identified as proceeds of bribes from Azerbaijani parliamentarian Elkhan Suleymanov, paid in 2012-14 in connection with the dilution of a PACE report on political prisoners in Azerbaijan. Subsequent appeals reduced the sentence on procedural grounds while sustaining the corruption finding.
