Hi Robert. Below you will find the full text that contains the term I posted.
En ocasiones anteriores, he tenido mucha amplitud de hablar sobre este tema, investigando las tipologías penales en materia de Defraudación Fiscal. Así mismo he investigado ampliamente este asunto en el ámbito latino americano, como también las corrientes evolutivas de la figura que se plasman en organismos internacionales.
