Marisol Ortiz

Marisol Ortiz is a judge known for her involvement in significant legal cases in Panama. Recently, she ordered the provisional detention of Bernardo Meneses, a former director of the Institute for the Training and Utilization of Human Resources (Ifarhu), following allegations of unjustified enrichment. Her decision was based on findings from an audit conducted by the General Comptroller's Office, which revealed a substantial increase in Meneses' assets that could not be accounted for during his tenure from 2019 to 2023. Ortiz's ruling reflects her role in addressing corruption and upholding the law in the country.
