Panama Papers an external hack, not a leak from the inside: Mossack Fonseca files complaint

Ramon Fonseca said the firm, Mossack Fonseca, had broken no laws and that all its operations were legal; it had never helped anyone evade taxes. Founding partner Ramon Fonseca said the firm, Mossack Fonseca, which specialises in setting up offshore companies, had broken no laws and that all its operations were legal. This is a hack,” Fonseca, 63, said at the company’s headquarters in Panama City’s business district. “Fifteen years ago, due diligence didn’t exist and they are judging us by other standards,” Fonseca said.
