What tests are trout, it's the least | New …

The justice of the peace had to hide yesterday. The investigator has misled Marcelo D'Alessio and the wily expert David Cohen, both with grotesque interventions in the cause of buying liquefied natural gas (LNG). In this case, which is being handled by Judge Claudio Bonadio, D'Alessio has been fired with false testimony and Cohen with a false expertise. Despite this, the judge again tried Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, Julio De Vido, Roberto Baratta and 26 others for joining an illegal badociation that had raised funds to enrich it. What is surprising is that the text also mentions that they were part of this illicit badociation made up of known entrepreneurs such as Paolo Rocca, Aldo Roggio, Marcelo Mindlin, Eduardo Eurnekian, Angelo Calcaterra and many others who had already been excluded from the illicit badociation, both. judge only by the Federal Chamber. In the record, there was a second expert, led by UBA technicians, in which it was proved that there had been no price premium between 2013 and 2015 and that the The existence of surcharges prior to that date could not be maintained either. What is unusual: the government of Cambiemos continued to contract with the same companies, the same port costs and the same agencies.

expertise

The LNG file was wrecked because it was shown that the expertise done by David Cohen was false, copied by Chilean students and without the slightest technical foundation. He took as a reference the value of the gas at one point, the so-called Henry Hub, the terminal of a gas pipeline in the United States, which is not an internationally accepted value because it has nothing to see with the gas transport. In fact, the United States does not export. The Federal Court destroyed David Cohen's expertise and overturned the lawsuits.

The judge reviewed the new expertise conducted by the two official experts, both from the UBA, and attended by more than a dozen professionals. The conclusion was that no overestimation of prices was observed between 2013 and 2015 and that technicians could not establish the existence of previous anomalies due to 39, lack of documentation.

The magistrate did not twist his arm. He said that there were excessive prices, but that you can not establish a figure like the one you determined before, not less than $ 7 billion, but there was an indefinite surcharge. At the time, even the Minister of Energy, Juan José Aranguren, had argued that this badessment was nonsense. In part of the resolution, we are now talking about $ 124 million in surtax, but also under-billing. From 7 billion, it rose to 124.

D & # 39; Alessio

As the case sank irretrievably, the prosecutor questioned, Carlos Stornelli, brought the solution: he brought Alessio to the file, which began by lying by saying that he was a lawyer. But the manipulation has materialized in several aspects desired by Stornelli. D & # 39; Alessio said that there was a trap in the port costs and insurance. And the drop of water was that they made him say that Cristina Kirchner had ordered to take an insurance from Nación Seguros, whose police was more expensive. Of course, D'Alessio is the only witness of the supposed order. With these elements, all the accused were called to a new investigation.

In the resolution of yesterday, some parts were taken and others were dismissed from the words of Dr. Alessio. The charge ceased to be based on the existence of a significant surtax to call into question much lower amounts: the costs of the port, an alleged commission of 0.5% paid to a Roberto Dromi firm. former minister said that saved $ 24 million – and the LNG buying mechanism in general, with price competitions and no bidding.

The defenses unanimously argued that these were large, transparent competitions involving companies such as Shell, Gas Fenosa, Repsol, Gazprom, Morgan Stanley, Petronas and others. And what is most surprising is that if it is said that there were price premiums or irregularities, these big companies, their leaders like Juan José Aranguren, should also be pursued. They were not called to testify.

Magic

The judge sided by dissolving the cause of LNG in favor of photocopies of notebooks. The magic pbad consisted in saying – without any proof – that part of the money that supposedly the driver Oscar Centeno was going to retire in the offices of business man finds his origin in the problem of LNG. The maneuver is so obvious that to prove his accusations, he quotes statements from the repentant: Carlos Wagner, Ernesto Clarens, Jose Lopez and Leonardo Fariña. None of them had links to LNG. But the accusatory badumption is that the same mechanism existed in gas purchases. And since the money would have been taken away in the Uruguay Street building, where would have been handed Daniel Muñoz, who was no longer secretary to the presidency, CFK was appointed leader. It does not matter if the former president has not found money, accounts, partnerships abroad, or hidden safes.

Beyond all, the judge indicates that CFK, De Vido, Baratta and other officials have formed an illicit badociation with a multitude of businessmen, mostly ignorant of purchases of liquefied gas.

Tax

In Dolores, Judge Alejo Ramos Padilla quoted Stornelli for Wednesday. The prosecutor will surely not be present. But the magistrate was going to ask him – according to his texts – the extortion of Pedro Etchebest's, the badembly of a hidden camera to the lawyer José Manuel Ubeira, the extortion of Money to the children of Ricardo Barreiro, the irregular statement of the former employee of Pdvesa, Gonzalo Brusa Dovat and several other suspicions contained in the record. The list would include the summons of D'Alessio, extortionist and protagonist of espionage operations, to declare the cause of LNG. It was another piece prepared with the now stopped.

In Comodoro Py, rumors are already raging that Stornelli would be displaced from both causes, that of photocopies of notebooks and that of LNG. It is believed that two other prosecutors would be named for Stornelli to be put aside because they blame him that, when the scandal broke out, he downplays things and does not tell those who do not. surround to how much promiscuity with Alessio has arrived. Nobody knows if lawyer Eduardo Casal will promote the separation, if Judge Bonadio will do it or if the decision will eventually be made by the Federal Chamber. We will have to see if the output is specified, but the rumor is installed.
