A Panamanian lawyer and a foreigner, accused of the alleged falsification of public documents have been banned from leaving the country and ordered to report every 15 days.

According to the National Migration Service (SNM) inspectors from the institution detected the lawyer and the foreign person, using presumably fraudulent documents, in which institutional seals and the signature of the Director General were also falsified.

The SNM filed a complaint with the Public Prosecutor's Office, an entity that, when carrying out the fingerprint check, found anomalies, and opened the corresponding investigation. The two people were brought before a Guarantees Control Judge, who imposed the measures.
