Argentina Auctions Seized Villa Devoto Mansion Tied to Kirchner Aide for $673,454

Officials cast the court‑seized home from the Cuadernos case as a step to return illicit proceeds to the public.

Overview

  • The winning bid was $673,454, below an earlier valuation of $926,263 cited in case records.
  • Courts confiscated the property in the Cuadernos bribery investigation after finding it was purchased with illicit funds linked to Daniel Muñoz.
  • The sale was conducted by the state asset agency AABE in a scheduled January auction with Banco Ciudad.
  • The four‑story house was registered to Madaco SA, and Muñoz’s widow, Carolina Pochetti, acknowledged in court that she collected its rent and garage payments.
  • Chief of staff Manuel Adorni said the sale advances efforts to return money from crimes to Argentines.
