Abstract:
On October 27, 2017, a French court found Teodorin Nguema Obiang Mangue, 48, and the second Vice President of Equatorial Guinea, guilty of embezzlement in absentia. The court gave him a three-year suspended prison sentence, a suspended 30 million euros ($34.78 million) fine, and ordered the confiscation of more than 100 million euros worth of his French assets.
