The news is breaking the world over that police in Panama have raided the Panama City headquarters of Mossack Fonseca.
The police were accompanied by officials from Panama’s Organised Crime Unit. Officers set up a perimeter around the headquarters while prosecutors entered the offices to search for documents.
Afterwards, the attorney general’s office in Panama said the aim had been “to obtain documentation linked to the information published in news articles that establish the use of the firm in illicit activities”. Office subsidiaries will be searched too.
