SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) — FBI agents on Monday arrested Puerto Rico Rep. María Milagros Charbonier and three other people, a spokesman for the pro-statehood New Progressive Party said.

 

Raúl Colón, a spokesman for the president of Puerto Rico’s House of Representatives, told The Associated Press that an adviser for Charbonier notified the president of the arrest. No further details were immediately available.

 

FBI spokeswoman Limary Cruz told the AP that four people were arrested but said she could not immediately release more details. The U.S. Attorney’s Office announced an upcoming press conference about a public corruption case.

 

Charbonier recently said the FBI interviewed her and had seized her phone.

 

She is one of Puerto Rico’s most conservative and religious legislators. She has served as representative since her election in 2012 but just lost in Sunday’s primaries. Charbonier also previously served as secretary general for the New Progressive Party.

NABU cooperates with FBI in PrivatBank case on memo basis

Director of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) Artem Sytnyk announces the existence of a memorandum of cooperation with the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the PrivatBank case, which is associated with businessman Ihor Kolomoisky.

 

"The only thing that I can disclose is that we have long signed a memorandum of cooperation with the FBI. Some people really wanted to read it, even a whole lawsuit was filed on this in the Kyiv District Administrative Court, we were asked to show this memorandum to some public organization. But this decision did not enter into force," said Sytnyk at a briefing on the report on the activities for the first half of 2020 in Kyiv on Monday, answering the question whether there were any U.S. inquiries on the Kolomoisky case.

 

He stressed that there is a long-term cooperation with the United States on the PrivatBank case, but he has no authority to disclose information.
