Brazilian president denies endorsing corruption hush money

Brazilian President Michel Temer denied a report alleging he endorsed payments to silence jailed politician Eduardo Cuhna as a potential witness in a corruption investigation.


Jornal O Globo reported it obtained recordings of a conversation between Temer and a food company business leader, who recorded the discussion secretly, in which Temer endorsed the executive's hush money payments to Cuhna.

Cuhna was sentenced to 15 years in prison in March after being found guilty of accepting more than $1.5 million in bribes.
