BRASILIA, Rabi'I 03, 1438, December 02, 2016, SPA -- Brazil's Supreme Court indicted the president of the Senate, Renan Calheiros, on Thursday for embezzlement, a ruling that is expected to fan growing tensions between the judiciary and Congress over corruption cases, according to Reuters. A majority of the top court voted to put the senator on trial for misusing public funds in a nine-year-old case involving the payment of financial support for a daughter Calheiros had in an extramarital affair. --SPA 00:07 LOCAL TIME 21:07 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w281428
