Overview
- Horacio Rosatti, Carlos Rosenkrantz and Ricardo Lorenzetti declared the defense’s extraordinary appeal inadmissible, sustaining prior rulings that denied excarcelation.
- Alperovich remains under court-ordered house arrest in a Puerto Madero apartment for health reasons after spending about a year in Ezeiza federal prison.
- The 16-year sentence stems from a 2024 conviction on three counts of sexual abuse and six counts of aggravated sexual abuse with penetration against his niece.
- Lower courts found a high flight risk based on Alperovich’s wealth and political influence and cited concerns about potential obstruction of justice.
- The merits of the conviction are still under review at the Cámara Nacional de Casación Penal, which will decide whether to confirm or overturn the verdict.
