An unusual discovery was made during the search of the summer residence of the former Paraguay president, Santiago Peña, where investigators found a safe hidden behind a false wall.
The search was held on Sunday evening on luxury property in the San Bernardino area, about 30 miles [50 km] from the capital of Asunción, under investigation into the financial scandal associated with the collapse of the Weno bank.
According to Paraguay media, the vault had an armoured door and sophisticated security system, allegedly including recognition of eye iris, fingerprints and numeric codes. However, investigators have not been able to open it, while what is inside is not yet known.
The authorities ‘ doubts are also linked to the financing of the residence, which was reportedly built during 2024-2025, through loans borrowed from the Wayne Bank. The prosecution is investigating financial relations between the former president and this banking institution.
The Weno Bank’s Kolapsy reportedly left nearly three million clients without access to their accounts, causing financial and political crisis in the country.
According to the report, the scandal has led to Peña’s dismissal through parliamentary procedure, while he is in custody on charges of abuse of office and personal gain from office. The former president has denied the charges.
Investigations are continuing to whitewash wealth financing and allegations related to bank collapse.
