Original: lidio lopes

Police in Iguatemi, Mato Grosso do Sul, arrested an aide to state deputy Lidio Lopes carrying around R$ 127,000 in cash and campaign leaflets, in what investigators describe as a vote-buying operation. Reports say the man also attempted to bribe officers during the arrest. The suspect is a former president of the local city council chamber, and the case has drawn wide attention in regional media.

Why now: The arrest of a sitting lawmaker's aide with large sums of cash and ballots days around the election raises fresh vote-buying allegations in Mato Grosso do Sul.
