Nuzman Rio 2016 Investigation – CWEB.com
Nuzman, who was head of the Rio 2016 bid committee and is a well known figure in Olympic circles, was summoned to face questions about how he secured the right to host South America’s first ever Olympics amid suspicions he was a key figure in a bribery scandal.
Brazil’s federal police on Tuesday said they raided the home of Carlos Arthur Nuzman, the national Olympic committee’s president, to probe a suspected international vote-buying scheme to secure Rio de Janeiro’s selection as the host of the 2016 Games.
