- Fiscal Franco Picardi’s filing identifies lobbyist Miguel Ángel Calvete and Alan Pocoví as key operators moving large sums, with part of the funds allegedly routed into cryptocurrencies via the app referenced as “NEBLOCKSHAIN.”
- Former ANDIS director Diego Spagnuolo and ex–number two Daniel María Garbellini appeared in court but declined to answer questions, and new summonses run from November 28 through the first week of December.
