Ivan Ayuso remanded to prison on money laundering charge after not posting bail

By Anita Nembhard-Flowers (Court Reporter): Former National Sports Council Accounts Clerk, Ivan Izair Ayuso, 42, is on remand at the Belize Central Prison after failing to post bail today, having been charged with money laundering.

Ayuso, who was represented in court by attorney Ronell Gonzalez, stands charged with laundering some $1,090,277.13 through property transactions between April 2012 and August 2016.

Senior Magistrate Aretha Ford did not take a plea because the matter is an indictable offense and offered Ayuso bail in the sum of $300,000, which he could not meet.

Ayuso is scheduled to reappear in court on March 18, 2021.
