Lisa, S.A. asks Panama's Anti-Corruption Prosecutor to issue an Interpol location alert for Juan Luis Bosch Gutiérrez, who has not been located for notification of the admitted criminal complaint.

Procedural Context

The motion comes at a critical stage of the criminal investigation. The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office had admitted Lisa, S.A.'s criminal complaint against Juan Luis Bosch Gutiérrez through Resolution 73-2023 on June 22, 2023, and issued a Summons ordering him to appear, without success. By January 2025, the investigation had advanced through multiple steps, including requests for financial records from Villamorey, S.A. and the addition of a second Criminal Complaint, filed by BDT Investments, Inc., accusing Bosch of misappropriating $120,000,000.00. Despite repeated attempts, Bosch has not been located for personal notification of the resolution admitting the complaint, a procedural obstacle that this motion seeks to overcome through international police cooperation.

The filing came just nine days after Bosch's attorney, Lcdo. Moisés Joel Bartlett Quiel, submitted an Opposition Brief in which, while arguing against the requested evidentiary measures, he acknowledged that Lisa, S.A.'s shares had been endorsed to BDT Investments, Inc. This sequence indicates that, although Bosch's defense was actively participating in the criminal file through written submissions, Bosch himself was neither appearing in person nor available for notification purposes.
