Any individual who influences a public official or authority by taking advantage of any situation arising from their personal relationship with that official or authority, or with another public official or authority, to obtain a decision that could directly or indirectly generate an economic benefit for themselves or a third party, shall be punished with imprisonment for six months to two years, a fine of one to two times the amount of the benefit sought or obtained, and a ban on contracting with the public sector, as well as the loss of eligibility for public subsidies or aid and the right to enjoy tax and Social Security benefits or incentives for a period of six to ten years. If the intended benefit is obtained, these penalties shall be imposed in their upper half.
