federal justice investigates whether the deputy of Together for Change Gerardo Milman He knew that on the night of September 1, Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner would be the victim of an assassination attempt and he did say that when the event occurred, he would be “on his way to the coast,” sources with access to the judicial investigation reported.
The national deputy for the Front of All (FdT) and president of the Bicameral Intelligence Commission, Leopoldo Moreau, considered that “it is a delicate matter” the investigation that is being carried out in the Federal Justice to verify if the legislator of Together for Change (JxC) Gerardo Milman was aware that an attack was going to be perpetrated against Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner.
For his part, the national deputy Rodolfo Tailhade assured that federal judge María Eugenia Capuchetti “should have already summoned” the deputy of Together for Change (JxC) Gerardo Milman, suspected of having knowledge of the attack before it happened.
And the interior minister, Eduardo “Wado” De Pedro, described the testimony as “serious” of an employee of Congress who told the Justice that the deputy of Together for Change (JxC) Gerardo Milman was aware that an attack against Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner was being prepared.
The track under investigation
The track is investigated in a reserved file that was opened from the testimony of a adviser to the Front of All in the Chamber of Deputies, who claimed to have heard Milman refer to the attack before it occurred.
The witness, whose identity will be kept confidentialassured in court that the episode occurred on August 30 at the Casablanca restaurantlocated a few meters from Congress, after 3:20 p.m., as Télam was able to reconstruct.
The witness claimed to have heard that deputy Gerardo Milman, from JxCtold two women with whom he shared a table that “when they kill her” he would be “on his way to the coast”; something that came back to his mind two days later when she found out about the assassination attempt.
Repercussions in the Front of All
The national deputy for the Front of All (FdT) and president of the Bicameral Intelligence Commission, Leopoldo Moreau, considered that “it is a delicate matter” the investigation that is being carried out in the Federal Justice to verify if the legislator of Together for Change (JxC) Gerardo Milman was aware that an attack was going to be perpetrated against Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner.
“Striking elements appear on the edges of JxC and PRO. The possibility that the deputy (Milman) was involved is a sensitive issue. In the investigation, the track has to be treated very carefully.“, Moreau said in statements to AM750.
Moreau assured that “the Justice is taking steps to advance the cause” and “shed light on central aspects linked” to the attack against the Vice President.
On the other hand, Moreau maintained that the key to the case that is being followed by the attack against the Vice President, which is in charge of Judge María Eugenia Capuchetti, is linked to the investigation carried out by Judge Marcelo Martínez de Giorgi on the Federal Revolution group and its possible implications with the event that occurred on September 1.
“Naturally the key is the financing of the Federal Revolution. In that sense, much progress has been made in the cause to find sources of resources that seemed weak but have been strengthened,” he said.
Likewise, he expressed that the discovery of the money coming from the group of companies of the family of the former Minister of Finance of Cambiemos Luis Caputo destined for the Federal Revolution “gives a different magnitude to the investigation.”
For the deputy, the apparent links between the Federal Revolution and the attack on the vice president means that “we are getting closer to requalifying the causes.”
“Maintaining the cause as an attempted murder is absurd, I think we are facing an act of terrorism. It is an institutional act, the investigation must be requalified. Everything tends to unify the causes,” he concluded.
For its part, deputy Rodolfo Tailhade said that the judge “should have already summoned Milman” in the case of attempted assassination
“By now the judge should have summoned Milman. He is a deputy of the nation, not just any person. You can not be spinning around such a serious issue. If he is afraid that they will call him as a witness, but he cannot spend that much timeTailhade said in dialogue with AM 990 radio.
“The judge took action because she confirmed Milman’s meeting with these two women and everything that the witness said had happened, apparently she has already proven it”Tailhade said.
In this context, the FdT legislator and head of the Justice Commission of the Lower House warned that until now there had been “a very slow and passive response” by Judge Capuchetti since the testimony “is several days old.”
Also, He recalled that Milman “was not only chief of staff” of former Security Minister Patricia Bullrich during the Cambiemos administration, but also “was in charge of criminal intelligence.”from where “many operations of the macrista illegal espionage style” were carried out.
“I also have the information that the two women who were with Milman worked in criminal intelligence at the Ministry of Security,” he added, referring to Carolina Gómez Mónaco and Ivana Bohdziewicz, the two women who on the afternoon of August 30 shared the table with Milman at the Casablanca restaurant.
On the other hand, Tailhade criticized that the case investigating the far-right organization Federal Revolution is not unified with that of the attack on Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and attributed that procedural decision to a “Commodore Py strategy” so that “there are no results in none” of the investigations.
Regarding the possible financing of the Federal Revolution by a trust of the Caputo Hermanos company, the deputy warned that “there is nothing that closes around” that business group since -he insisted- “there are no reasonable explanations” about the hiring of Jonathan Morel’s carpentry for some construction works in Neuquén.
Along these lines, the FdT legislator remarked that the group that organized the Torchlight March against the Casa Rosada and that carried guillotines in the opposition protests “was obviously very well financed.”
“The explanations, for the moment, did not close me. How did a construction company of the level of Caputo arrive at the carpentry of (Federal Revolution spokesman Jonathan) Morel when it did not even have a sign to identify it,” he deepened.
And he added that from the Caputo Brothers society there was “speculation” to try to stay away from the investigation and that they only appeared before the court when “they found out that it was inevitable.”
“It is one thing after the other. One does not want to think badly but it is too explicit,” he concluded.
Finally, Interior Minister Eduardo “Wado” De Pedro described as “serious” the testimony linking Milman to the attack against Cristina
“We did not imagine that political violence could return to Argentina. The complaint that a deputy like (Gerardo) Milman was aware of this fact is very serious and serious.”said De Pedro in statements to El Destape Radio.
