The media aligned with the macrismo try to put the attack once morest Cristina Kirchner almost on the same level and what they point out as failures in custody. The judge took statements from all the members of the Federal Police who were most directly in charge of the security of the vice president. and that they were surrounding her on Thursday at the time of the assassination attempt: sub-inspector Santiago Guglielmoni, chief Matías Fernández, commissioner Vicente Pelegrino and chief Guillermo Gallo. All of them were less than two meters away. In addition, there were six patrol cars on Juncal and Uruguay streets.
Serious flaws at the time of the attack
Former members of the Federal and, specifically of the presidential custody, told this newspaper that there were serious flaws. A second line that must have been looking at the people and the troops ready to pounce on anyone who drew a knife or a weapon did not intervene. La Bersa was inches from the vice president’s head. Second, the reaction of those around CFK was very slow and inadequate.
It is also true that developed countries had no response to similar attacks: recently former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was assassinated and further back there were attacks once morest Isaak Rabin, Ronald Reagan, John Paul II.
Capuchetti inquires regarding custody, not because there is a crime – breach of the duties of a public official is an intentional crime, that is, it only exists if it is intentional – but because he needs to see the whole picture of what happened. That is why she asked Cristina Kirchner directly regarding the issue.
CFK, difficult to guard
It is already known that the vice president said that she was not aware of the attack and was very satisfied with the custody. It’s more, in his statement he signed that he defines himself as “unruly”, that is to say that he is not docile to the indications given to him in terms of security.
It is something that is seen with the naked eye, the same as it was seen in her husband. Nestor Kirchner is remembered from the first day of his presidency because a photographer accidentally hit him when he got into the public; in Catamarca it happened that a sympathizer twisted his ear as a sign of affection.
The problem is that the political climate changed. There have already been warnings of the existence of other Sabag, that is, people with neo-Nazi ideology and with weapons, who can act as the attacker did. For now, this Friday it was decided to change the car to CFK: from now on it will move in an armored Ford Mondeo. The obstacle is that she gets off and gets on, she goes to greet people, and that leaves too much room for an attack. That same Friday, following her assassination attempt, she left her building and approached those who were waiting for her.
