As already reported by La Derecha Diario, between February and December 2024, 193 completely irregular bank transfers were made from Fosvoc to personal accounts of at least 14 people, linked to SUNCA. The total amount illegally diverted amounts to approximately 1,200,000dollars, according to the prosecutor in charge of the investigation, Gilberto Rodríguez. In addition, a previous enormous illegal diversion in 2023 is under investigation, involving checks for about 500,000 dollars. The prosecutorial investigation is revealing that the Communist Party (PCU) illegally financed its 2024 electoral campaigns and the departmental campaign of May 2025. With money stolen from the workers, the communists who operated within Sunca illegally diverted more than one million dollars to finance PCU's electoral campaigns.
