The Justice expected this Monday the presentation of the key man in the case of the aggravating cartels once morest Cristina Kirchner. The hierarchical employee of the imprenta Viagraphic, Francis Serranowho was the one who had the posters made, telephoned the prosecutor’s office in Leonel Gomez Barbera and announced that he would attend in the followingnoon, but at the close of this note he was still in rebellion. The owner of the printing press argued in court that the one who ordered the printing of the posters was Serrano and, in parallel, the fixers who pasted the posters declared that Serrano paid them 90,000 pesos for that work. The great problem of the cause is to determine who was behind it. The Buenos Aires Public Ministry issued a statement pointing rather to Peronism, while the publicist most linked to Cambiemos has been mentioned for days, Good Valentine. Those close to this businessman communicated with this newspaper to point out that “Well, he had not the slightest relationship with those cartels. We are shocked by this accusation.”
The attempt of the Buenos Aires Justice to link Peronism
On Monday morning, the movements of the Buenos Aires Justice were striking and directly they aimed to link Peronism with the posters. The prosecutor Mauro Terezko requested and obtained the search of the house of Dario Mendez, the owner of the shed from which the fixers who stuck the posters came out. The Buenos Aires Public Ministry awarded Méndez the central role: “he is the one who commissioned the posters.” In fact, Méndez –linked to the macrismo– had already presented himself to the police and said that the posters were printed in Lanús and that the head of the printing press, Serrano, only hired him to paste the posters. Without presenting any evidenceaffirmed that the operation was carried out at the request of a Peronist publicist, Enrique “Pepe” Albistur.
An argument used by the Buenos Aires Justice is that in the raid on Méndez, a truck was found plotted with the faces of the Buenos Aires governor. Axel Kicillothe lieutenant governor Veronica Magario and the mayor of La Matanza, Fernando Espinoza. They also detected pieces of those violent posters. The truth is that Méndez heads a company and a group of fixers who work for all political forces, for musicians and in the promotion of events on public roads. That is why it is not strange that elements linked to different figures are found. His son Christian, who led the fixing of the posters, appears on his Facebook in photos with several leaders of the PRO.
national justice
The most advanced and solid investigation is in the National Criminal Justice of the City of Buenos Aires. Before the prosecutor Leonel Gómez Barbella The owner of the Lanús printing press has already declared, admitting that the posters were printed there and that Serrano brought the order. Judge Manuel de Campos ordered Serrano’s arrest and nothing had materialized until Monday evening. In fact, the prosecutor Gómez Barbella was presenting a letter to request that Serrano’s home be searched urgently.
From a testing point of view, this track appears to be the strongest. The owner of the Viagraphic printing house, Julius Caesar Franchino, presented emails with which Serrano ordered the work of the posters. And that coincides with what Méndez declared to the police: Serrano paid his son 90,000 pesos to put up the posters.
So the ball is in Serrano’s court and not in Méndez’s: he ordered the printing and paid the fixing.
Hypothesis
The Buenos Aires Justice –without any evidence– pointed to Méndez and in that way to Peronism. The head of the company that put up the posters took Albistur’s name out of the hat, without showing a paper, a call, any kind of link.
On the other hand, Serrano worked until last year with the publicist Valentín Bueno. He appears as an employee of Latcom, Bueno’s company, with which Méndez was also linked. The publicist, who received a large part of the schedule on public roads during the macrismo and the Chief of Cabinet of Mark Pena, categorically denies that he had the posters made. His relatives maintain that “it has nothing to do” with the involvement of a former employee of his firm. “My company has offices in Argentina, the United States and Miami, we work for everyone, we have nothing to do with it,” they say he said Okay. The businessman’s lawyers threaten to initiate legal action once morest those who accuse him.
questions
It will be necessary to see what Serrano declares when he appears before the judge and the prosecutor, but there are a couple of things that are clear and others that have not yet been answered:
* The posters were printed at Viagraphic in Lanús. They retired on Saturday, March 26.
* The request was made by Francisco Serrano, a kind of foreman of the printing housealso dedicated to looking for clients and jobs.
* The fixing of the posters was also contracted by Serrano and he paid 90 thousand pesos to Méndez and his fixers.
* Serrano worked for LatCom, the company of the macrista publicist Bueno, but Bueno denies that it has anything to do with the posters.
* It is decisive to analyze communications. Much of the truth may emerge from the cell phones and computers. The judge already has a good part of the media that he seized in a raid on the printing press.
* Other questions need to be answered: How was the original of the poster delivered to the printer? Namely who did the design? who made the film that later becomes the sheet for printing? who paid?
* The posters referred to a website using a QR code. The prosecutor asked for information regarding who bought that site (host): it must have met certain requirements and there must be a record.
With all these elements, it would be possible to find out who was really behind the dirty campaign.
