He pointed out that it is frequently &#8220;the same names, the same businessmen and the same people&#8221; involved in similar cases.\n\nRegarding the embezzlement case at the National Health Insurance (SeNaSa), the legislator stated that these procedural benefits should be reviewed and modified, so that even when the accused return part or all of what was stolen, they also face custodial sentences.
