SAN SALVADOR (Reuters) -A U.S. State Department report on Central American officials credibly alleged to be corrupt includes a member of Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele s cabinet and a former minister, according to an extract of the document leaked on Monday.
The report also includes two opposition figures and a lawmaker in Bukele s alliance. A U.S. congressional aide told Reuters that the document circulating in El Salvador media was accurate.
The document emerged less than a week after the U.S. special envoy for Central America, Ricardo Zuniga, visited the country and met Bukele amid a push from Washington to curb corruption and address a lack of judicial independence and weak rule of law in the region.
