By José Somarriba Hernández for La Prensa - The ex-director of Panama's Penitentiary System, Carlos Landero, confirmed that before being dismissed, he sent on vacation and requested the dismissal of 14 employees who participated in a party organized by Colombian Classy Watson Herrera. The party, which was held according to Landero in the bar La Birra, was to celebrate Herrera's release from prison, who served a 72-month sentence in La Joyita for a drug-related crime, and who was released from prison this past 21 May 2007. Landero said that in spite of the fact that there is a standing request from the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) of the United States to arrest and extradite Herrera, the sub-director of the penitentiary system Ronaldo Bravo - who is currently in the position of temporary director - ordered his release.

Señaló que pese a haber una solicitud de la DEA (Agencia Antidrogas estadounidense) para detener y extraditar a Herrera, el subdirector Ronaldo Bravo –ahora director encargado– ordenó su libertad
