The Electoral Court (TE) points out that the information circulating on social networks about an "alleged" bank transfer of $150,000, in favor of Judge Heriberto Araúz, president of that corporation, is false.

The alleged transfer would have been received by Araúz on the same day that the TE announced its decision to recognize the criminal electoral jurisdiction in favor of former President Ricardo Martinelli , who is being investigated for the New Business and Odebrecht cases. The decision was supported by magistrates Araúz and Alfredo Juncá ; Eduardo Valdés Escoffery saved his vote.

“The Electoral Court denies information circulating on social networks and in some media, of an alleged bank transfer of B/150,000.00 in favor of the presiding magistrate Heriberto Araúz Sánchez. This information is false. The Banco General has denied the information on its Twitter account”, the TE wrote on its social networks, at 1:44 pm on Thursday, March 24.

Shortly before, at 11:54 am, from a Twitter account with the name @Nancyleon88, an image of the alleged state of a Banco General current account was disclosed, in the name of Heriberto Araúz Sánchez, opened on June 25, 1998, in which a deposit of $150.000  can be seen, made last Wednesday. “This is how the online banking of Heriberto Araúz Sánchez dawned. I don't care if they kick me out after this, but enough of chilling out,” she wrote

Nineteen minutes later, in that same account, the tweeter announced that, in effect, she had been fired from Banco General, "for the crime of leaking a personal account... Thank you @rmartinelli, you have good friends who take care of you."

The @Nancyleon88 account is already inactive, but many people captured those messages and are circulating them on social networks, so that "Banco General", "Nancy" and "Electoral Tribunal" are currently the three main trends in the country, on Twitter reports La Prensa.
