A safeguard of guarantees presented by the defense of Ricardo Martinelli seeks to annul the complaints filed by the victims of the process that is followed by the former president for allegedly spying on communications from at least 150 people.

First, that decision was three years ago and, second, the decisions of the Court are not attackable through amparos, “he argued.

Guevara seeks to dismiss Mejía’s decision on July 4, when he denied the exmandatario an appeal for annulment that sought to overthrow the process, invoking the 2015 jurisdiction.
