The Seventh anti-corruption prosecutor Leyda Saénz on Wednesday, May 23 filed an appeal against bail granted to four high profile defendants in a  money laundering case.

The bonds were granted by the Fourteenth Criminal Court to Riccardo Francolini, Ramsés Owens, Joel Watson, and Mariel Rodríguez Espino  linked to the investigation of alleged money laundering in the Jal Offshore company.

The company was supposedly used to launder money through an investment account in the now defunct Financial Pacific (FP) brokerage.

The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor is investigating 13 other people and has asked Interpol to issue red alerts for the capture of six who have fled the country.
