Abstract
In Panama, during the validity of the previous criminal process, the direction of the investigation and the exercise of the criminal action was the power of the social representation, that is, the Public Ministry, who carried out the acts of investigation to prove its theory of the case. With the promulgation of the new criminal, oral, adversarial and guarantor procedural system, the technical defender acquires a leading role in the investigative role, based on the freedom of investigation and presentation of evidence, for which he requires the adoption of skills that facilitate the effective exercise of the defense in the investigative phase.
