Cedeño explained that he proceeded to present the appeal in this instance after the refusal of the Authority for Transparency and Access to Information (Antia) to investigate the complaint. Cedeño explained that Antai did not admit his request after alleging that it was not competent to investigate what he denounced. The lawyer had gone to Antai on January 17 to file an administrative complaint with the purpose of investigating the origin of the funds used by the institutions that participated in the event. In the appeal, the lawyer provided an example. In the State contracting portal, Panama Compra, the Superintendence of Insurance and Reinsurance reported having spent $21,500 in the rental of luxury skirts and shirts. He stated that if this is multiplied by the amount spent by the other delegations, it would give a considerable amount of money. https://www.newsroompanama.com/news/criminal-complaint-over-1000-polleras-spending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
