Awaiting the return of former dictator Manuel Noriega in Panama.
News of his arrival dominates the headlines as people attend church.
For some it is a time of reflection.
Noriega was toppled in a U.S. invasion in 1989 and has spent the last two decades behind bars, both in the U.S. and France.
Now he is heading for prison in his own country.
(SOUNDBITE) (Spanish) PANAMANIAN, NAIDA SALAS, SAYING:
"Here, he really hasn't paid for anything, everything that he has done, everything that the Panamanian people suffered through during all the time when he was dictator. I believe that it is fair that he pays here. He has to pay because he has not paid anything."
The 77-year old Noriega left Paris early on Sunday. When he arrives he will head to prison to serve a 20-year term for the murders of opponents during his rule.
