Supreme Court orders search for Jorge Blanco case

The Supreme Court of Justice ordered that the Departmento de Inspectoría Judicial carry out an in depth investigation to locate the dossier of the case regarding corruption in office against former President Salvador Jorge Blanco. The SCJ says that when the dossier is located it will issue a statement on the status of the case. Last week, lawyer Marino Vinicio Castillo requested the Attorney General and District Attorney continue the case against former President Jorge Blanco. The case has been dormant for about eight years.
