Martinelli sons’ evidence denounced by former lawyer

WHILE lawyer and Ricardo Martinelli spin doctor Eduardo Camacho  is making moves in The Supreme Court attempting to block prosecutors  from investigating bank accounts of Martinelli’s sons their own   former lawyer is contradicting their  statements.
Evelyn Vargas was arrested in Mexico in February and told prosecutors the sons twice tried to persuade her to flee to MIami, but her US Visa had been revoked.
The prosecutors are investigating bribes paid by the Brazilian construction company Odebrecht.
Evidence she provided contradicts statments by the brothers Luis Enrique and Ricardo Alberto Martinelli Linares regarding bank accounts in Switzerland.
In her statements ­ which have proved to be key to locating assets of the family of former President Ricardo Martinelli ­Vargas pointed out inconsistencies in the evidence provided by the brothers in Switzerland to justify the payments made by a company controlled by Odebrecht to their bank accounts.
According to the Martinelli brothers, the payments corresponded to the acquisition, by Odebrecht controlled companies, of premises in the Los Andes shopping center owned by the brothers and
their partner, Riccardo Francolini, currently in detention while under investigation in another case.
The proof they provided are certificates of debt assignment, signed in July 2011 by Vargas, as president and legal representative of the company Promotora y Desarrollo Los Andes.
But Vargas said she wasn’t the legal representative of the company at that time, only assuming the role in December 2011.
She also said she has no idea what the payments were made for.
Swiss prosecutors seized bank accounts linked to the Martinelli brothers containing $22 million that have been tied to payments made by Odebrecht.
The Brazilian company has admitted paying $59 million in bribes in Panama during the Martinelli administration.
