Impeachment process in Brazil: Brazil congressional commission backs impeaching Rousseff

-

Pro-impeachment members of the commission accuse the two-term leader of manipulating budget accounts shortly before the 2014 election in order to conceal the true size of the budget deficit.
At the close of the session a shouting match erupted between opponents and supporters of the president, with some unfurling banners reading “Dilma Out” and hurling leaflets in favor of impeachment into the air.
Rousseff’s career now lies in the hands of Congress, whose 513 members will begin debating on Friday.
But they also point to her growing unpopularity, as well as an ongoing investigation into alleged corruption at state oil company Petrobras related to her Workers Party, and they also blame her for a worsening economic situation.
At this point it is impossible to say which way the vote in Congress will go: the result is expected on Sunday.
