Carlos Arthur Nuzman, the president of the Brazilian Olympic Committee, resigned during an extraordinary general assembly. His resignation followed his arrest on suspicion of vote-buying to secure Rio de Janeiro as the host city for the 2016 Olympics. Nuzman, who had been president since 1995, faced charges of corruption, money laundering, and involvement in a criminal organization. Alongside him, Leonardo Griner, the director of operations for the Rio 2016 Committee, was also detained.
