(FASTNEWS|COLOMBO) – A Brazilian court has sentenced former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to a further 12 years and 11 months in prison for corruption.
Lula, as he is known, was found guilty of taking renovation work from a company implicated in a massive corruption scheme.
The former president is already serving a 12-year sentence over work done on a beach-front property.
His lawyers said he would appeal against the new conviction.
