SUPERINTENDENT OF BANKING ALLOWED MILLIONS IN DIRTY ODEBRECHT MONEY TO BE LAUNDERED THROUGH PANAMANIAN BANKS

 The news of the $2bn Obebrecht corruption scandal, and the arrest of the company's CEO, has now exposed yet another illegal act, committed by by Alberto Diamond R, Panama's fugitive former Superintendent of Banking. Sr. Diamond reportedly approved the movement of millions in corrupt proceeds of Odebrecht, and of dirty politicians, through Panamanian banks, effectively laundering them, before they were sent on to banks in  Switzerland, Monaco, and other offshore financial centers.

As the sins and transgressions of Alberto Diamond mount up, the failure, to date, of the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office to charge him cannot be explained. If not for Diamond's collusion with Panama's money laundering banks, who paid him handsomely to stick his head in the sand, while they filled his pockets, much of Panama's problems could have been averted.

The EU would not have placed Panama on its list of Non-cooperative Tax Havens, and the FATF would not be knocking on the door with its Blacklist, if Diamond had just done his job as banking regulator. I ask the Attorney General of Panama: when will he be charged, and brought to justice ?
