Arias briefly spoke to assembled media but declined to comment specifically on the two criminal complaints that were filed in Costa Rica's judicial system last week.
A second woman filed a criminal complaint for sexual abuse against former Costa Rican president and Nobel Peace laureate Óscar Arias, local press said on Friday.
Following Tuesday's reports that former Costa Rican president Óscar Arias had allegedly sexually assaulted an activist in 2014, two other women have come forward with similar stories.
Arias is among Central America's most powerful political figures, not only for his terms as president in Costa Rica but also for his work promoting peace in the region. He was accused of sexual assault Monday.
