OPINION: When “political persecution” means impunity
Within the entire network of corruption cases initiated by the attorney general of the Nation, many are pending. In the processes derived from the National Aid Program (PAN) alone Millions of dollars were detected in badly placed monies in accounts in Switzerland, yachts and investments in mansions in Florida.
The actions of the Public Ministry were disqualified as “selective” or executor of a “political persecution”. The truth is that never in the history of the country, had public coffers been looted on the scale and magnitude that we barely began to know. Justice is the great debt of Panamanian democracy. If impunity continues to triumph and triumph in the judicial courts, we will have lost the country – LA PRENSA, Dec.22.
