Fra »Jordens mest populære politiker« til tremmerusker

Den tidligere brasilianske præsident Lula da Silva kan nu med al sandsynlighed vinke farvel til sin drøm om at vende tilbage til præsidentpaladset, efter at en fængselsdom mod ham er blevet både stadfæstet og forlænget.

A Brazilian appeals court Wednesday upheld ex-president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva's conviction for corruption, dealing a body blow to his hopes of running for re-election this year. The three-judge panel sitting in the southern city of Porto Alegre unanimously ruled that his original 9.5-year jail sentence be extended to more than 12 years. Lula was defiant, telling he intends to run for the presidency despite the court setback. / AFP PHOTO / Nelson Almeida Fold sammen
