The health of Florencia Kirchner: the doctors of C …

The forensic body of the Supreme Court of Justice will appear this afternoon in Federal Court 5 to provide details on the medical history of CFK's daughter. After this step, the court must decide whether it allows Florencia Kirchner to continue in Cuba or maintains the decision to force her to return to the country.

The documents had been presented last week by the defense of the daughter of the former president, at a hearing during which he had claimed that the girl could stay on the island until 39 at the end of the treatment for the lymphoedema undergone.

Judges Adriana Pallioti, José Martínez Sobrino and Daniel Obligado and the prosecutor Diego Velasco heard the arguments of the lawyer Carlos Beraldi, who presented the complete clinical history of Florencia Kirchner, signed by the Cuban doctors who the attend. In addition, she attached a medical report prepared by three professionals supporting the evaluation carried out by her Cuban colleagues and Argentinian forensic experts, who also agreed with their colleagues on the island and affirmed that the young person woman could not go to Cuba. this moment.

After this hearing and with all the documents in hand, the judges again asked the medico-legal body to give its opinion before deciding to repeal the provision which obliges the daughter of the senator to interrupt her treatment and to return to Argentina. .

The defense had specifically requested that the medical history not be publicly overtaken. The court therefore decided to open a reserved file, to which only the prosecutor's office and the medical examiner have access. They have already badyzed the content and will express their opinion. this afternoon in the court of the Los Sauces case.

Florencia Kirchner states that no deadline is imposed for her return, but that she can only return there when she gets the final medical discharge. The central argument is that there is no procedural reason requiring your presence at the moment, especially since there is not even a date. for the beginning of an oral process. In addition, the patient has the right to choose the treatment and to apply it, which is supported by the international treaties to which Argentina adheres.

TOF 5 had ratified the return order of Florencia Kirchner on 4 April, but after that provision and one day before that deadline, it had been declared incompetent in this case. Then, the Chamber avoided defining who should lead the trial – which could very well be unified with the Hotesur case and the one known as "public works". It therefore maintains for the moment the jurisdiction over the situation in Florence.

Forensic experts had already endorsed what had been said by Cuban doctors who had advised the patient not to travel. In addition, the prosecutor of the case, Diego Velasco, did not put obstacles to Florence staying abroad and even suggested to the judges that the accused be presented periodically at the Embbady of Argentina in Cuba.

According to page 12, after listening to the doctors, the Court's definition would not be deferred for several days.
