The superior anti-corruption prosecutor Anilú Batista - an inheritance left by former attorney Eduardo Ulloa - completed her "exhaustive, complex and objective" investigation into the case of the Albrook modular hospital. It concluded, "that the facts of knowledge by the Public Ministry do not constitute a crime" and, therefore, decided to provisionally archive the case. In the second act of this work, the Comptroller, hours after having circulated the document, and at dawn, announced the payment of the hospital after the conclusions of the prosecutor. The case ended up archived, because, according to the prosecutor, everything is in complete order. Is there something new in the prosecutor's decision? Nothing. Let us remember that in Panama the most honest politicians in the world exercise, and that the perception of corruption in the government and its officials are unjustified conjectures, the product of a chronic collective madness of society or of the imagination of all of us. Perhaps we should applaud that we have working for the good of the country a prosecutor who no one deceives her and officials of unquestionable honesty, who left their native Macondo to come to erase those perverse impressions that we have of our leaders. - LA PRENSA, Jul. 9
