About Antonio Saca

Elías Antonio "Tony" Saca González (born 9 March 1965) is a Salvadoran politician, businessman, and journalist who was the 40th President of El Salvador from 2004 to 2009 as a member of the Nationalist Republican Alliance (ARENA). Saca is the most recent Salvadoran president to be a member of ARENA. He is currently serving a minimum 10-year prison sentence on corruption charges. On 12 September 2018, Saca received a 10-year prison sentence after he pled guilty to embezzlement and money laundering charges involving more than $300 million of public funds. The FMLN accused the United States of intervening in the electoral process because several high-ranking officials warned that U.S. relations with El Salvador would be seriously threatened if Handal won the elections. This opinion was reinforced by the fact that ARENA assured that the United States could deport Salvadorans living there if the leftist candidate won.
