  • Donations supporting Valérie Dittli were paid into a Centre Vaud account titled “Support for Valérie Dittli,” to which she had sole signing authority.
  • Le Temps reports that 7,000 francs in donations made through Twint are also under scrutiny.
  • Dittli has denied allegations that she sought to close the party-linked account and has since left the Centre to create her own political movement.

A further 7,000 Swiss francs in donations made through Twint to support Vaud government councillor Valérie Dittli are now under scrutiny, according to Le Temps.

The payments add to questions already raised about donations deposited into a Centre Vaud account titled “Support for Valérie Dittli.” Although the account belonged to the party’s Lavaux-Oron section, Dittli held sole signing authority over it.

Blick reported that members of the section accused Dittli of trying to close the account. She denies the accusation. The controversy comes as Dittli has left the Centre and created her own political formation.

She plans to seek a second term in the Vaud government through the new movement, called the Liberal Movement. In an earlier account, she said she had no other choice but to leave the party.

I had no other choice.
