According to authorities, however, Pegasus was in operation on the sixth floor of a building owned by Btesh from January 29, 2013, until May 14, 2014, 10 days after the election of current President Juan Carlos Varela.<\/p>\n<p>Martinelli has previously denied the charges of illegal wiretapping, saying he is a victim of &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/panampost.com\/panam-staff\/2015\/06\/09\/fugitive-martinelli-can-add-wiretapping-to-charges-in-panama\/\" target=\"_blank\">political persecution<\/a>.&#8221; The former president is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2015-09-17\/from-miami-s-scarface-pad-an-exiled-billionaire-fights-back\" target=\"_blank\">now believed<\/a> to be residing in Miami.<\/p>\n<h3>InSight Crime Analysis<\/h3>\n<p>Intelligence systems can be used for good or for bad. Parallel, off-site intelligence systems are almost always used for bad. In this case, Martinelli was at least spying on his opposition. But if he was like most other politicians who have employed similar tactics, he was probably also spying on his own prosecutors and judges, the same ones who are now investigating him for multiple embezzlement schemes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.insightcrime.org\/component\/tags\/tag\/58-panama\" target=\"_blank\">Coverage of Panama<\/a><\/p>\n<p>There is certainly growing evidence pointing to that conclusion; corruption allegations have been swirling around Martinelli ever since he left office. In addition to the espionage charges, the <a href=\"http:\/\/laestrella.com.pa\/panama\/politica\/audiencia-contra-martinelli-reanudara-proximo-8-marzo\/23925399\" target=\"_blank\">Supreme Court is investigating<\/a>\u00a0the former president for his alleged role in a scandal involving millions of dollars worth of<a href=\"http:\/\/www.insightcrime.org\/news-briefs\/widening-panama-corruption-scandal-embroils-political-elite\" target=\"_blank\"> inflated contracts and kickbacks<\/a> at a state-run food assistance program. In total, Martinelli is facing <a href=\"http:\/\/uk.reuters.com\/article\/uk-panama-corruption-idUKKBN0TU07820151211\" target=\"_blank\">at least six charges<\/a> of embezzlement, espionage, and influence peddling, and in December 2015, a Panamanian court stripped the former president of his immunity so that he could be tried on charges of insider trading.<\/p>\n<p>A similar dynamic can be seen in other parts of Latin America where government-funded spy networks have been employed for shady, individual purposes. In <a title=\"Link to Colombia landing page.\" href=\"http:\/\/www.insightcrime.org\/colombia-organized-crime-news\" target=\"_blank\">Colombia<\/a>, for example, two high-ranking government officials were sentenced last year for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eltiempo.com\/politica\/justicia\/caso-chuzadas-del-das-condena-a-maria-del-pilar-hurtado-y-bernardo-moreno\/15660280\" target=\"_blank\">their role in a wiretapping scandal<\/a> that took place during the administration of former President \u00c1lvaro Uribe. The former president has <a href=\"http:\/\/www.insightcrime.org\/news-analysis\/the-case-against-uribe\" target=\"_blank\">faced mounting allegations<\/a> of ties to drug trafficking and paramilitary groups since leaving office in 2010, and his brother was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.insightcrime.org\/news-analysis\/the-case-against-uribe\" target=\"_blank\">recently arrested<\/a> for allegedly creating a right-wing paramilitary death squad in the late 1990s.
