So far in the trial, the experts of the Prosecutor’s Office have already verified with respect to the loans that there is an excess of interest rate on the loans granted by father and son, taking into account that they charged up to 72%, which moved the sum of G. 6,539,895,697,879 through usury.
For the Prosecutor’s Office, there is no consistency between the income declared by the defendant before the SET and the deposits made in the bank accounts, so these were not declared.

Both Ramón González Daher and his son Fernando González Karjallo simulated the true origin of the deposits made with the banking entities, where they operated under the guise that said income came solely from the collection of rents.
