Santo Domingo.- Luis Miguel Pereyra, the First Lady Margarita Cedeño’s lawyer in her case against Santiago TV personality Marcos Martinez yesterday showed a statement from the Danske Bank denying she has any relation with that organization based in Denmark.

Martinez meanwhile, resurfaced yesterday after, according to Santiago media having “vanished,” and called “clownish” the document allegedly from the Danish authorities presented Thursday by Banks superintendent Haivanjoe Ng, denying Cedeño has an account in the Danske.

Pereyra said the bank issued the document from its branch in Sweden at the request of the Dominican embassy in that nation, which also handles the relations with Denmark and Finland.

Martinez also vowed to disclose more documents in the coming days, bud didn’t specify their content.
