In the election campaign of 2010, the Citizen Action Party (PAC) paid to falsify signatures of the questioned contracts for special services that were used to defraud the State.
The statement was made this Monday by Jeannette Román, former member of the central canton of San José, in an appearance before the special commission of the Congress that investigates the financing of the electoral campaigns of the political group in 2002, 2006 and 2010.
The former leader did not give further details, but confirmed that this happened, after a question asked by legislator Gustavo Viales, from the National Liberation Party (PLN) and president of that legislative forum.
“To recap, were there people who were paid to forge the signatures in the PAC?“ asked Viales. Roman, under oath, simply replied: “Correct.”
She also said that an employee told her, under professional secrecy, that Margarita Bolaños and Elizabeth Fonseca stood out for exploiting the workers.
In her story, that worker said: “They told me to falsify signatures and I did it.”
The liberationist said that it seemed to him that more and more new elements are emerging that were not clarified in the trial that took place in 2017 and after which Minor Sterling and Manuel Antonio Bolaños were condemned.
