In Panama questions have arisen about the impact that will be felt from the arrest in Brazil of Marcelo Odebrecht on the many projects awarded to his company in the country.<\/p>\n

The arrest of Marcelo Odebrecht has generated uncertainty in important projects awarded to the Brazilian company, some of which are under implementation or have recently been awarded such as the Metro Line 2.<\/p>\n

According to Prensa.com, Ramon Ricardo Arias, president of the Foundation for the Development of Civic Freedom agrees that “… the main thing is for Panamanians is to know what will happen to the projects that are being built under the portfolio of the company Odebrecht … “.<\/p>\n

Regarding the multiple awarded projects, Arias confirms that “… in this collection of projects is necessary for the authorities of the Attorney General and the Comptroller to do the work that corresponds to them …”<\/p>\n

Arrest of \u2018Big Fish\u2019 Odebrecht Ups the Stakes in Petrobras Probe<\/span><\/h1>\n

In arresting Marcelo Odebrecht, Brazilian federal prosecutors have netted themselves a whale.<\/p>\n

Odebrecht\u2019s journey from heir and leader of one of Brazil\u2019s largest family business empires and most influential companies to a jail cell in Curitiba is an economy-shaking development in the unfolding Petrobras bribery scandal that suddenly shows no signs of abating.<\/p>\n

Odebrecht\u2019s billionaire family\u2019s empire spans across more than 20 nations. The company over which he presides as president, Odebrecht SA, has built Brazilian World Cup stadiums, Cuba\u2019s deep water port, Miami\u2019s airport and is Angola\u2019s biggest private employer. The conglomerate is a major and aggressive donor to Brazilian political campaigns at all levels.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Police detained Odebrecht, 46 years old, and Otavio Azevedo of Andrade Gutierrez SA, Friday as part of a coordinated federal operation involving 220 police officers in four states. The strike is the culmination of months of digging by investigators who were convinced that a scheme involving Petrobras insiders and contractors to rake-off vast sums from inflated construction and service contracts had to have the blessings of corporate higher-ups.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the biggest fish they\u2019ve caught yet,\u201d said David Fleischer, an emeritus professor of political science at the University of Brasilia.<\/p>\n

Investigation Grows<\/h2>\n

The arrest of a business boss with such wide-reaching political ties is adding new fuel to the investigation and could deepen Brazil\u2019s recession, said Christopher Garman, head of country analysis for Eurasia, in a phone interview from Washington D.C. Economists are already forecasting the worst contraction in 25 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a line of investigation that keeps growing and can contaminate the whole economy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Odebrecht, whose grandfather Norberto founded the company in 1944, has denied wrongdoing and a judge has yet to accept formal charges. In an interview at Odebrecht\u2019s Sao Paulo offices last month, he declined to comment on the record about alleged company involvement in the Petrobras scandal, saying only that investigators are looking at a small part of the vast web of 500 companies and 15 divisions that make up Odebrecht.<\/p>\n

In a wide-ranging interview, he did agree to talk about his conglomerate\u2019s legal campaign finance contributions, saying such contributions are part of the influence process that major contractors participate in. The company gives money to candidates based upon a consensus of its top executives of their business needs. The list of recipients includes governors, political parties that back mayors and \u201cabout 150 members of congress,\u201d according to the CEO.<\/p>\n

Political Contributions<\/h2>\n

\u201cWhen you are the industry leader, and we are the leader of practically all industries, naturally you have to deal with the politicians of that sector,\u201d Odebrecht said.<\/p>\n

Odebrecht SA, which reported 108 billion reais in revenues in 2014, does everything from heavy construction to making petrochemicals.<\/p>\n

In 2014, an election year, the company and its subsidiaries contributed 88 million reais, according to Brazilian election records. The major builders being investigated in the Petrobras scandal legally contributed 344 million reais to political parties in 2014, an election year. About half went to the three parties implicated in the scandal, according to Brazilian election records.<\/p>\n

The arrests of presidents Odebrecht and Azevedo follow raids last Nov. 14 in which police arrested CEOs and top executives from at least seven companies accused of being part of the bribe-giving cartel. Prosecutors at the time sought arrests of two Odebrecht executives but Judge Sergio Moro ruled they didn\u2019t yet have enough evidence.<\/p>\n

Offices Searched<\/h2>\n

The latest arrests took longer because the accused were \u201cmore sophisticated\u201d by moving cash through offshore accounts, federal police official Igor de Paula said in a press conference in Curitiba.<\/p>\n

Police now have concrete evidence that the presidents of both companies were aware of bid rigging, bribery payments and forming of a cartel, de Paula said. The investigation has reached as far as accounts in Switzerland, Panama and Monaco. Though the investigation hadn\u2019t previously uncovered documented proof of bribe payments at Odebrecht and Andrade Gutierrez, there has since been an \u201caccumulation of evidence\u201d that changed the case, Moro said in a search and seizure order released Friday.<\/p>\n

Odebrecht\u2019s construction unit said in an e-mailed statement that its offices in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro had been searched and that arrest warrants had been carried out. The company said the detentions were \u201cunnecessary\u201d since the company and its executives have cooperated with the investigation.<\/p>\n

Habeas Corpus<\/h2>\n

Odebrecht board member Newton de Souza will assume executive functions in Marcelo\u2019s absence, said Dora Cavalcanti, a lawyer for the company. She said in a Sao Paulo press conference that lawyers will file a request for habeas corpus to free the company\u2019s executives in coming days.<\/p>\n

Andrade Gutierrez said in an e-mailed statement it was aiding in the police investigation and denied any involvement in the scandal, dubbed by prosecutors Operation Carwash because a money-laundering component of the scheme was run out of a gas station.<\/p>\n

Moro, in his arrest order, said that the the bribery scheme couldn\u2019t have existed without the knowledge of Marcelo Odebrecht and Otavio Azevedo, given that it had gone on for at least a decade and involved hundreds of millions in bribes paid in billions worth of contracts.<\/p>\n

Moro also cited an e-mail sent to Marcelo Odebrecht about overpricing of contracts, and a phone call between Azevedo and alleged bribe broker Fernando Soares. Soares has denied any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n

Police Jet<\/h2>\n

Marcelo Odebrecht and the other arrested executives were taken by police to Curitiba, the capital of the state of Parana. They were loaded onto a police jet on a dark, rainy runway in Sao Paulo, according to images on TV Globo.<\/p>\n

Not all of the suspects named by Moro were immediately detained. \u201cI have nothing to do with this situation,\u201d said Paulo Roberto Dalmazzo, a former Andrade Gutierrez executive who had an arrest warrant issued by a judge on Friday. He said in a phone interview that he planned to turn himself in, even though the arrest was \u201cabsurd.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
