WHILE  A FORMER manager of the Brazil operation of Panama law firm  Mossack Fonseca,  continues to reveal  details of an alleged  worldwide money laundering network run through a subsidiary of the company, the interrogation of  a  founding partner, has been further delayed.

On Friday, March 3,  The Second Prosecutor Against Organized Crime suspended the extension of the scheduled investigation of  Ramón Fonseca Mora, accused of alleged money laundering related to the Lava Jato case.

The suspension was due to  a petition filed by Guillermina McDonald, Fonseca Mora's defense attorney  who said  that she has not yet been able to fully review the file to prepare a defense to the allegations

No date for the resumption of the interrogation has been set. Meanwhile Fonseca Mora and his partner Jürgen Mossack remain in  preventive detention  where they have been  held since February 10.

An application for bail was denied  by the Seventeenth Criminal Court on February 24.

When first arrested, Fonseca Mora provoked an administration crisis when he accused President  Juan Carlos Navarro of links to the Odebrecht scandal.
