The Ministry of Public Works said yesterday that a team of 40 lawyers from the Anti-Corruption and Penalty Division of the Attorney General’s Office (FGR) raided the Assembly facilities as part of an investigation into alleged illegal locations.

German Ariasa, head of the anti-corruption unit of the attorney general’s office, explained that the test involved human resource management and financial management. The search was ordered by the Fifth Court of Peace in San Salvador, which authorized the practice.
