Italian courts have authorized the extradition of former congresswoman Carla Zambelli. The Brazilian government has already received official notification.
Congresswoman Carla Zambelli is arrested in Rome and the Italian courts will decide within 48 hours whether to maintain her arrest or initiate extradition to Brazil.
Congresswoman considers requesting asylum in the US and rules out going to Italy after doubts about the protection of her Italian citizenship and the risk of extradition.
