Have you witnessed corruption in a court or judicial setting? Do you sense foul play and think you know who might be responsible?

To aid the Costa Rican judiciary in fighting corruption within its ranks, there is now a free, confidential, 24-hour hotline where you can report your concerns.

The resource is part of the Costa Rica Supreme Court of Justice’s anti-corruption policy, said the judiciary press office last week.

A toll-free, confidential telephone line, 800-8000-645, is now open to the public so they can report information or suspicions relating to corruption within the judiciary system.

President of the Supreme Court of Justice Zarela Villanueva Monge, has been spearheading a number of  anti-corruption measures as part of her tenure.

Officials hope that information received through the hotline will help the work of the judiciary’s commission to investigate the penetration of organized crime and drug trafficking.

The judicial branch aims to use information on any irregularities that they are able to confirm in order to take corrective actions.
