Knowing what I know about political corruption, I can never trust that any report of a politician being arrested for wrongdoing is done out of sincere adherence to the rule of law. Rather, I suspect many politicians only get any punishment by the law when they fall out of favor among the string pullers. They were already known to be guilty long before they were reigned in, but they simply pissed off the wrong people in power or did not have enough favor with the string pullers to be let off.
