Didier Reynders, a prominent political figure, is currently under scrutiny for alleged money laundering, a charge he firmly denies.

The investigation centers around Reynders and his wife's significant expenditures on e-tickets from the national lottery over several years.

As part of the inquiry, Reynders is required to clarify the origins of nearly one million euros in questionable funds.

In light of the situation, former Deputy Prime Minister Louis Michel expressed his sadness during an appearance on RTL tvi's 'Face à Buxant', highlighting Reynders' past contributions to the country and their political camaraderie.
