The judge in the Baninter fraud case, Eduardo Sanchez Ortiz, has adjourned the hearing on the bail petition for the three main suspects, former Baninter president Ramon Baez Figueroa, and vice-presidents Marcos Baez Cocco and Vivian Lubrano de Castillo. The hearing will resume on Tuesday 9 December. Lawyers for the accused are growing increasingly impatient with what they describe as “biased” decisions by the case judge, according to this morning’s newspapers. They plan to file a formal complaint against him with the Supreme Court. “The judge is totally biased in favor of the government,” said Marino “Vincho” Castillo, who heads the Baninter legal defense team.
