The search warrants were executed in the districts of Chilibre, Las Garzas, and Alcalde Díaz.
According to the investigations, the detainees were allegedly linked to the creation and use of false disability and good health certificates, which were presented as if they had been issued by clinics and hospitals of the Ministry of Health.
The operation took place in areas of Pacora and North Panama, with the support of agents from the Directorate of Judicial Investigation (DIJ), where authorities collected documents and other evidence considered key to the progress of the case.
