Overview
- On Wednesday, Francisco Adorni filed a written defense telling Judge Daniel Rafecas that a 2024 entry of 130 million pesos should have read 13 million pesos because he accidentally added a zero.
- Prosecutor Guillermo Marijuan asked that Adorni be called to give a formal statement after reading the 2024 declaration as showing a roughly 70 million‑peso fall in debt from 130 million to 60 million.
- Adorni previously amended his 2025 declaration to add 24.5 million pesos in cash and said about 21 million came from an inheritance.
- Separately, Manuel Adorni corrected his 2023–2024 declarations to add roughly US$500,000 and faces a fiscal requerimiento from prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita for an explanation.
- The case is at the investigative stage with no conviction, and the outcome of Rafecas’s decision will determine whether the inquiry moves to formal testimony and deeper probes of the brothers’ patrimonies.
