Defense attorneys argue that any evidence must be made known in a timely manner to guarantee the right to a defense. Attorney Carlos Carrillo reiterated the call to respect due process. Yesterday's Odebrecht case hearing advanced with the completion of the reading of the summons to trial order and the beginning of evidence presentation by the prosecution. During the session, the defense demanded the inclusion of extraordinary evidence, ensuring they had no prior access and are not formally part of the judicial file. Carrillo stated that Ricardo Martinelli's rights have been violated and that he has no connection to money laundering or illicit acts. He explained that the investigation is based on donations from the 2008-2009 political campaign, before his presidency, and denounced that the Public Ministry concealed the annulment in Brazil of evidence derived from Drousys and My Little Web. The defense will have three days to review 10,000 pages of evidence in the Odebrecht case. In response to the challenges, Judge Baloisa Marquez granted the defense a three-day deadline to review the objected probative material. After that period, they can present observations and requests on the relevance and legality of the evidence, which will determine whether they remain in the process. The Prosecutor's Office presented 10,939 new pages from international judicial assistance, mainly from Peru and Andorra, which will be provided in digital format. The hearing will resume on Wednesday, the 21st, at 8:00 a.m., when the defense can raise their objections. During these three days, the process has been marked by repeated requests to respect due process.
