PoliticsSpanish PM’s brother banned from public office for nine years after misconduct trial

The brother of Spanish prime minister Pedro Sánchez has been barred from holding public office for nine years after being convicted of administrative misconduct. The case concerned his hiring nine years ago by a socialist-led council in Extremadura, in south-western Spain. Corruption allegations involving Sánchez’s family, his government and the Spanish Socialist Workers’ party have prompted repeated opposition demands for a snap general election. Everyone accused has denied wrongdoing.
