SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador (AP) — El Salvador’s top prosecutor has ordered a freeze on the bank accounts and properties of former President Francisco Flores while an investigation continues into his possible mismanagement a decade ago of a $10 million donation from Taiwan to the government.
Attorney General Luis Martinez says the measure is precautionary, but it comes days before Sunday’s presidential election. Flores is campaign director for Norman Quijano, candidate of the conservative opposition Nationalist Republic Alliance.
