After it was confirmed that the “Notebooks of bribes” were adulterated, the owner of the company Electro Ingeniería, Gerardo Ferreyra and the former Undersecretary of Coordination and Management of the Ministry of Federal Planning of the Nation, Roberto Barattawho were imprisoned for this cause, affirmed that The entire investigation “was a very large intelligence operation”.
Both agree that there were more than 1,600 irregularities in the writings that were presented as evidence and in which they were illegally involved in the investigation, since they proceeded ignoring legal responsibilities and multiple contradictions in the statements of Jorge Bacigalupo, Oscar Centeno and Carlos Stornelli.
“This was all a very large intelligence operation. A lawfare action that had international collusion. Who can think of that all this is the product of a complaint filed by a driver (Centeno) and a former agent of the Federal Police?” Ferreyra said in statements to the radio AM 530.
A calligraphic expert determined that pieces of the “Notebooks of bribes” were manipulated
“There was illicit association with Centeno, a former member of the Federal Police and the Army Intelligence Battalion 601. Then his friend and also an ex-police officer, Bacigalupo, and the journalist from the newspaper The nation, Diego Cabot, to whom they allegedly gave the information from the notebooks. Added to all this is the judicial leg with the prosecutor Carlos Stornelli,” recalled Ferreyra.
Regarding the expert opinion known this Monday, Ferreyra said: “Now, five years following the damage they caused me when they arrested me, a third expert opinion is being carried out and it is shown that not only the notebooks were altered, but also that the handwriting was from Basigalupo“. Judicial sources reported that “the letter of the overwrites in the case denounced by businessman Armando Loson, is from Bacigalupo.”
In addition, the businessman reported: “The Justice ordered that its three cell phones and his notebook. I think we will be able to find out who he acted with and what the illegal association he was part of was like.” In this sense, he added: “So far it has been determined that the contents were dictated to Centeno, but it is not known who did it. With the opening of cell phones it will be known if Cabot or Stornelli were involved“, he pointed out.
“If one analyzes the original witness statements of Centeno, Cabot and the now known Bacigalupo, one finds lies and many contradictions between the three”, indicated Roberto Baratta, who was imprisoned for two years and eight months. “Was chasethe objective was to destroy everything that had to do with the planning and everything that the Ministry carried out,” he added in communication with AM530.
Baratta denounced that suffered “espionage” in jail, they listened to me when I was talking on the phone with my lawyers and my children, my wife was harassed saying that If I didn’t declare what they wanted, they put her in jail. There were thousands and thousands of pressures, even while I was imprisoned in Ezeiza I was intimidated by social leaders as representatives of businessmen”.
“The responsibilities established by the Law of the Repentant were not fulfilled, so everyone These advances do not imply that the judicial process falls, although it should. We shouldn’t have gone to jail without a trial either, but Stornelli is still a prosecutorBaratta said.
“It is to write books with the things that have happened. True books, not photocopies, hoaxes or made by the intelligence service”, Baratta said ironically and assured: “I do not seek JusticeBecause looking for it here is being delusional, but I am looking for the truth. Not all, but you are that they are coming out ”.
The contradictions that Baratta denounces in the testimonies
Regarding the new expertise that confirms the existence of “added and amended legends”, the former official explained that he was not surprised, since “it is what we marked from August 1 of five years ago, a tragic day personally, because this It is only a part of the great contradictions, lies and falsifications that exist in the Cuadernos cause”.
“For example, Bacigalupo and Cabot supposedly crossed paths because they were neighbors, but according to their declared addresses they are not. Bacigalupo said that he only saw him twice, the day the notebooks were delivered to him and the day he returned them to Cabot, but then he added that he saw them on other occasions”, Baratta began to recount.
Regarding the box that contained the alleged notebooks, which according to what had been declared, had been delivered a year earlier by Centeno to Bacigalupo, Baratta said that “when Cabot delivered the papers to the prosecutor Stornelli, there is a document letter that Centeno gave him. send your ex-wife whose date is following the delivery of that alleged box from Bacigalupo to Cabot”.
“Of course this was an intelligence operation,” Baratta said.
In addition, he pointed out that “you have to see the context in which we were. First, in October, days before the legislative elections of 2017They put me in prison and gave Julio de Vido a second preventive detention. We were imprisoned there until March/April, when the expert report exposed the lies of the famous expert Cohen in the LNG case”, he began to remember.
“In that period, Stornelli is challenged and removed from the Río Turbio case due to lack of objectivity and manifest animosity. In those months in which he was away, it was when Bacigalupo, Cabot and Stornelli got together to set up the Cuadernos cause. That July 31 also, as they declared, when Centeno was first imprisoned, Cabot and Stornelli went to look for Bacigalupo, they eat some croissants and take him to testify in front of Stornelli himselfBaratta reviewed.
What Baratta said regarding the Repentant Law and the businessmen who testified once morest him
The Repentance Law, sanctioned in 2016, “seeks to break the pact of silence within criminal organizations.” It has a period of one year, in which the judge and the prosecutor must check whether the information given by the “repentant” was true and useful. “There is a year to verify that what they said was true. no one might prove it”, Baratta accused in radio statements.
“In the middle we had the antics of the acquittal of all Techint, they supposedly gave me money, but it was my fault alone. All of that is still there. Speaking of repentant businessmen, there were many who declared that they had given me absolutely nothing”, he recalled who was De Vido’s right hand.
Gerardo Ferreyra, from Electroingeniería: “The repentants held a false story”
“There are other businessmen who also marked these things in other notebooks, for example Nestor Otero, Jorge Rodriguez, Alberto Padoan, who certified that on the date they supposedly met me, they were abroad. There were other businessmen who certified that they were in other places in Argentina, ”Baratta reported on the alleged collection of bribes from him.
Finally, the former Nation official once more targeted the prosecutor who received the photocopies of the notebooks and revealed that “Stornelli, in a week in September, I woke up every morning without warning from the Ezeiza cell at 5 in the morning and returned me at midnight. He did this to me five days in a row and the engineer Valenti was also there in Comodoro Py, ”he said.
“Valenti was kept there for a week until he changed his statement. They put me on the common bus and took me, but Valenti was there directly for a week. You can’t stay in Comodoro Py for more than two days, the cells are disgusting,” denounced Baratta while pointing out extortion and stating that “of course this was an intelligence operation.”
