A court in Equatorial Guinea has sentenced former senior government official, Baltasar Ebang Engonga, to eight years in prison for embezzlement. Engonga, who gained notoriety after explicit videos of him with several women leaked online, was found guilty by the Bioko provincial tribunal of diverting funds earmarked for official travel for personal use. According to Hilario Mitogo, press director of the Supreme Court, the court also imposed a $220,000 fine on him. Engonga, who previously headed the national financial investigation agency, was tried alongside five other senior officials accused of misappropriating hundreds of thousands of dollars in state funds. His conviction comes months after his detention in November, when videos of him with women, including the wives of fellow officials, surfaced on social media while the embezzlement probe was still underway.
