Sources confirm arrest warrant against Marco Livio Díaz for alleged money laundering and embezzlement by theft.
The former head of the Superintendency of Tax Administration (SAT) and current ambassador of Guatemala in Honduras is investigated by an agreement between the SAT and a university.
The case is under reservation and the investigation is in charge of the Special Prosecutor’s Office against Impunity (Feci) of the Public Ministry.
According to sources, Feci coordinated a raid to try to enforce two of the three arrest warrants issued by the court specializing in money laundering. The results of the operation were negative.
The investigation arises from an agreement that the SAT signed with a private university, where personnel from that institution came to teach classes.
However, according to sources, the hiring of teachers and other aspects related to the agreement were coordinated through a public limited company that would have received money from the SAT.
So far, transfers have been detected for around Q1.5 million. In addition, the investigation identified that this company was made up of people close to Marco Livio Díaz, according to a source who preferred not to be cited.
