OjoPúblico is one of the news organizations participating in the Panama Papers investigation into the data leaked from the Mossack Fonseca law offices.

The news outlet also reported as part of the Panama Papers investigation that Nicolás Lúcar and his wife Frances Crousillat, the producers of the talk show Señora León featuring Mexican actress and singer Laura León, had opened an offshore company to avoid taxes in Peru.[5]

OjoPúblico also discovered as part of the Panama Papers investigation that Mossack Fonseca counted among its clients Ment Dijkhuizen Cáceres Floor, a Peruvian of Dutch descent who had been sentenced to 25 years in prison for money laundering following the seizure of 1.6 tons of cocaine in the Netherlands. Dijkhuizen had already fallen under suspicion and been questioned by the Peruvian drug police, (Dirandro), in connection with 200 kg of cocaine discovered in a 2003 shipment from his asparagus enterprise to a Spanish port. Massack Fonseca helped him to create an elaborate network of shell companies.[6]
