TC accepts request to Pinochet’s daughter and suspends millionaire tax collections

The Constitutional Court suspended the collection of a million-dollar debt from the daughter of the dictator Augusto Pinochet, Jacqueline, after accepting the appeal that she presented last month in which she accused the Internal Revenue Service (SII) of charging excessive taxes in relation to what owed to the agency.

The youngest of the Pinochet-Hiriart brothers filed a request accusing that the collection of more than $3.3 billion for a net debt that reached $309 million was “unfair and abusive of interest,” and that this violates their constitutional guarantees.

According to the brief presented by the lawyers for Jacqueline Pinochet, Claudio Wortsman and Daniela Awad, there was “an artificial and disproportionate increase” in respect of the credits that the Treasury intends to collect, with interests “that multiply by more than eight times the supposed tax debt , and it becomes a flat sanction that produces a substantial dispossession of resources”.

The requirement presented by the dictator’s daughter details that other amounts were added to the outstanding debt for concepts of readjustments, interest and fines.

The decision of the TC, taken in a divided ruling, determined that the request presented by Jacqueline Pinochet meets the formal requirements and, by accepting it, pauses the procedure promoted by the SII until the admissibility of the request is resolved.
