The Ministry of Justice of the Nation held the meeting of the Federal Council of Justice (COFEJUS) in Mendoza together with ministers of Justice from all over the country. Minister Mariano Cúneo Libarona said that “we provide the Justice system with concrete tools to imprison criminals and have faster judicial processes.”

In this sense, he exemplified to his peers the work carried out in just ten months of management “we presented projects such as the lowering of the age of imputability, the Law of Trial in Absentee, the Trial by Juries, the Law of Orality among many others and we are working tirelessly on the implementation of the Federal Criminal Procedure Code.”

In turn, Cúneo Libarona called for working together and stressed the importance of listening to the needs of each jurisdiction: “What I want is for us all to participate, to give our opinions, to share their problems. “Each province has different realities and it is essential that we address them.” He added that “Argentina is one and deserves all our attention. We cannot focus only on the port or the large province; all regions must be heard.”

Regarding one of the projects worked on in the administration, promoted by the Undersecretary of Criminal Policy Alberto Nanzer, the minister argued: “We have a law being drafted with Dr. Nanzer for early confiscation. The kidnapping of assets is a disaster in Argentina , the FATF recriminates him.”

During the second block of the event, Nicolás Ramírez, coordinator of the Judicial Coordination Committee Against Drug Trafficking (MAJUN), highlighted the progress made in the fight against drug trafficking, thanks to the effective coordination between the judicial and security forces of the entire country. Furthermore, he stressed that the fight against drug trafficking is not of a legal nature, but of criminal policy, for which cooperation between jurisdictions and the strengthening of the response capacity against this type of complex crimes is required.

The authorities elected during the day were: as first vice president, Mercedes Rus. As second vice president, Marcelo Domínguez. As general secretary, Gabino Tapia. Regarding the Executive Committee of CoFeJus, Juan Martín Mena was elected for the AMBA Region. For the Central Region, Julián López. For the Cuyo Region, Laura Palma. For the NEA Region, Juan José López Desimoni. For the Northwest Region, Raúl Albarracín. And finally, for the Patagonia Region, Héctor Iturrioz.
