The Angola Supreme Court has given a 5-year jail sentence to Jose Filomeno dos Santos, the son of the country’s former president, for $500million fraud.
Filomeno was later accused with stealing $500million from the reserve and transferring it to a bank account in Switzerland.
Meanwhile, his dad, José Eduardo dos Santos, led the country for 38 years. He was president from 1979 until he resigned in 2017, and was replaced by his former defence minister, Joao Lourenço.
Well, on Friday, 14th August, 2020, Judge Joao da Cruz Pitra imprisoned Jose Filomeno dos Santos, a.k.a Zenu, for 5 years.
Judge Joao da Cruz Pitra said;
“For the crime of fraud … and for the crime of peddling influence … the legal cumulus condemns him to a single sentence of five years in prison,”
