    More MEPs could lose immunity in corruption probe, president says – By Matt Murphy (BBC News) / Jan 2, 2023

    The EU says it will launch proceedings to remove parliamentary immunity from two MEPs implicated in an ongoing corruption scandal.

    Parliamentary President Roberta Metsola said she had taken the move after a request from Belgian police.

    The scandal erupted last month after one MEP and three others were arrested on charges of corruption and money-laundering.
