Ousted Senator Isabel Allende leaves Chilean Senate after real estate scandal

Senator Isabel Allende Bussi, daughter of former President Salvador Allende, has been removed from the Chilean Senate following a real estate controversy involving the attempted sale of her father's former residence to the state.

The Constitutional Court of Chile ruled unanimously to dismiss Allende, citing violations of constitutional provisions that prohibit legislators from engaging in contracts with the state. The incident has sparked widespread discussion about ethics and transparency within Chile's political and governmental institutions.
