Feb 26 (Reuters) – Panamanian authorities conducted a search of a local office belonging to a unit of Hong Kong conglomerate CK Hutchison office, a source familiar with operation told Reuters on Thursday.
The person said the search was not related to the current dispute over the Panama Canal ports.
Panama’s government recently annulled CK Hutchison’s contracts to operate two port terminals at either end of the Panama Canal, a move that the company has disputed.
