Romania ex-PM Adrian Nastase jailed in bribery case
Romania's supreme court has sentenced former Prime Minister Adrian Nastase to four years in prison for taking bribes.
He was also given three years for blackmail - a term which will run concurrently. The case involved favours involving Chinese goods and Romanian properties in 2001-2004.
His wife Dana Nastase got a three-year suspended sentence for collusion.
Mr Nastase survived a suicide attempt in 2012, shortly after getting a two-year jail term in a separate case.
