BRASILIA: Brazil's imprisoned ex-president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, still loved by large parts of the population, plans to remarry if he is released from prison, a former minister said.
"He is in love and the first thing he wants to do after getting out of prison will be to marry," Luiz Carlos Bresser-Pereira, who held cabinet posts in finance and science, wrote on Facebook - reportedly to the dismay of Lula's aides."He is in very good shape, physically and psychologically," the ex-minister said.According to the website of the weekly Epoca, the prospective bride-to-be is Rosangela da Silva, a sociologist aged about 40.
The conviction came as part of the wide-ranging"Car Wash" anti-corruption probe that has caught up several South American politicians.
