This afternoon, the National Police, through units from Interpol’s National Central Bureau, arrested a Brazilian citizen wanted by Uruguayan authorities at Tocumen International Airport for his alleged involvement in a multi-million-dollar business scam. The man arrived in Panama from Brazil with Barbados as his final destination. His departure from the airport was intercepted by specialized units of Interpol and the Judicial Investigation Directorate (DIJ). The man will remain in custody in Panama while international judicial cooperation with Uruguayan authorities proceeds.
This Brazilian citizen is allegedly linked to a network that creates international shell companies, offering foreign companies the management of financial guarantees to participate in international bidding processes. Under this scheme, they obtained a transfer of $2 million from one company.
