French center-right presidential candidate Edouard Philippe got a boost in an embezzlement case casting a shadow over his political ambitions after investigative judges stopped short of naming him as a formal suspect

#WATCH# | Yavatmal, Maharashtra: On the alleged Ayodhya Ram Mandir donations embezzlement issue, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Arvind Sawant says, "The biggest misfortune of this country is that the judicial system in the country stands enslaved. Who can protect the Constitution? Judicial system. But does it do its work? Even Supreme Court is not doing it. They are sitting as slaves...Do you even trust these SITs? SIT will decide only what they will be signalled and told. But it is good that Ramlalla did justice - they utter Jai Sri Ram and do corruption but He slapped them in the face."

Aside from a brief spike after the financial crisis, white-collar prosecutions in America have trended down for nearly three decades. That is surely not due to a fall in embezzlement

Update - Police seize assets linked to Boom Panadda as investigation deepens Thailand’s Anti-Online Fraud Police have reportedly moved to seize and examine assets linked to actress and philanthropist Boom Panadda, her family and close associates as part of an ongoing investigation. The assets reportedly include houses, land, 20 vehicles, six firearms, luxury bags and more than 100 million in bank funds, including accounts connected to her foundation. The latest move follows questions surrounding the source and acquisition of assets accumulated since 2017. Police are examining the assets and have acted to prevent any potential transfers while the investigation continues. Authorities are also considering whether to issue a summons or arrest warrant, with further clarity expected by Friday, November 6. The investigation is ongoing, and no wrongdoing has been established. #Thailand# #foundation# #embezzlement# #บุ๋มปนัดดา# #องค์กรทำดี#

Traders at now give Marine Le Pen a 43% chance of winning France's next presidential election, well ahead of former Prime Minister Édouard Philippe at 18% and Cannes Mayor David Lisnard at 13%. Over the past month, Le Pen has climbed from about 35% to a peak near 45%, Philippe has fallen from roughly 30%, and Lisnard has surged from low single digits. The market has seen more than $145 million in volume. The shift comes amid a third week of student protests over school conditions that have turned violent. France's Justice Ministry says 5,060 people have been detained, 87% of them minors. Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu told lawmakers Tuesday that 215 students and 85 education staff have been injured, the most education staff injured in decades. About 590 schools have been disrupted. Le Pen can run in spring 2027 after an appeals court in July upheld her embezzlement conviction but lifted the ban on her candidacy. A final appeal is pending.
