Edgardo Kueider adds complaints: they ask to investigate bribes

The detained senator Edgardo Kueider continues to add complaints for alleged crimes after he was discovered trying to bring more than 200 thousand dollars into Paraguay, where he is under house arrest.

To the investigation opened in Paraguay for attempted smuggling and the files that already pointed to it in Argentina, new complaints were added made in the last hours in the Comodoro Py courts in CABA.

Lawyer Valeria Carreras, who had denounced alleged bribes related to the vote on the Bases law, expanded her presentation after Kueider’s arrest in Paraguay.

“We cannot look the other way, we cannot be accomplices, it is necessary to investigate what happened because there are serious indications of the crime of bribery surrounding the approval of a Law,” Carreras warned.

Meanwhile, deputy Margarita Stolbizer denounced him for money laundering and now the Foundation for Peace and Climate Change, represented by Fernando Miguez, made a judicial presentation and requested an investigation into the crime of money laundering.

Carreras, who months ago had asked to investigate alleged bribes related to the Bases law, expanded his presentation, which is in charge of Judge María Servini.

The national senator was traveling with his secretary Iara Magdalena Guinsel Costa bound for Paraguay in a Chevrolet vehicle. On the Friendship Bridge, when checking the interior of the vehicle, the immigration authorities of the neighboring country detected the presence of a backpack, which contained undeclared currency. Thus, in addition to the 211 thousand dollars, the senator had among his belongings 600 thousand pesos and 3.9 million guaraníes.

For attempted smuggling, Kueider is detained under house arrest in Asunción, Paraguay.

Meanwhile, in Argentina, a case for illicit enrichment continues in the province of Entre Ríos, and another mega case is being processed in San Isidro regarding alleged bribes paid by a security company to a state company in Entre Ríos.

Now there are two complaints filed in the Comodoro Py courts, one filed by Stolbizer and another by the Foundation for Peace and Climate Change, which have already been drawn and fell before Judge Daniel Rafecas.

The complainant Miguez also denounced “institutional violence” and asked for aggravated penalties because it was a crime committed by a senator “due to the position of trust and power he occupies.”
