DONALD TRUMP'S ATTORNEYS ARE SEEKING TO HAVE NETWORK PROGRAM THAT ALLEGES MONEY LAUNDERING AT TRUMP'S PANAMA HOTEL REMOVED FROM PUBLIC VIEW

One of our reliable Panama sources has reported that attorneys for American Presidential Candidate DONALD TRUMP are taking new steps to have a documentary program that alleges Trump and/or his adult children engaged in money laundering in the Republic of Panama, in connection with sales at Trump's former Panama hotel and residences, then known as Trump International Hotel and Tower Panama,  originally Trump Ocean Club, taken down from the 'Web.  The lawyers' reported efforts include removal of the program from the Internet. 

The building, which has subsequently been known as Bahia Grand Panama, and now JW Marriott Panama, which was built by a Colombian group, whose sales staff included a number of individuals later wanted by the Panamanian authorities on criminal charges, has a dark history, involving foreign purchasers of the Tower residences who employed bearer-share corporations to take title, rendering positive identification of Beneficial Owners difficult if not impossible to determine.

We are aware of which American network has been named as the producer of the program, but we are not reporting that information until more details about the matter surface. Given that the documentary appeared in 2017, there are questions regarding why Trump has waited until the present to more assertively object to the program, and to take steps to remove it from public view. He has sought to have it taken down in the past, but not to the extent we are seeing now. 

While we are not aware that the Department of Justice is aware of the existence of this program, and its content, the fact that, five years later, Trump is moving against it again, might be explained by an investigation involving financial crime in Panama that is not yet known to exist. We are following up with our sources to determine the reason for this activity, which appears to be in progress, as a current effort to quash the program.
