Ex-EU Foreign Chief Mogherini Detained in Fraud Probe

The Spin

The European Public Prosecutor's Office is doing its job by investigating suspected fraud involving EU funds and the College of Europe tender process. Strong suspicions exist that confidential information was shared improperly and fair competition rules were breached in awarding the diplomatic academy contract. This unprecedented investigation shows the EU isn't afraid to pursue accountability even among high-ranking officials.

Arresting prominent figures like Mogherini before any guilty verdict violates the fundamental legal principle of presumption of innocence. Detaining citizens preemptively based on suspicion rather than conviction represents a dangerous overreach that must stop. No sentence has declared anyone guilty in this case.
