Rio Olympics head Carlos Nuzman formally charged with corruption
Carlos Nuzman, the head of last year’s Rio de Janeiro Olympics, has been charged by Brazilian federal prosecutors with corruption, money laundering, tax evasion and running a criminal organization.
Brazilian prosecutors announced the formal charges on Wednesday.
