‘I saw the bribe money’ told former Senate employee in the court. She was eyewitness to De la Rúa- era alleged payoffs to grease labor reform bill. She was a former congressional employee. She told the court that she had seen 300,000 dollars paid in bribes to a senator. This revelation could break as a political scandal and has the potential of shattering the elected
government.
