Argentine Court Weighs Stricter Visitor Limits for Cristina Kirchner's House Arrest

Judicial concern centers on large, simultaneous meetings at the residence.

Overview

  • The tribunal overseeing her six-year Vialidad sentence is considering tighter visitor rules after a photo showed about ten people meeting at her San José 1111 home.
  • Judicial sources described the gathering as a provocation and said the review targets how house-arrest visits are organized.
  • Measures under study include requiring specific justifications for each person and preventing simultaneous group entries or large meetings.
  • Judge Jorge Gorini has until now approved individual requests filed by her lawyer, Carlos Beraldi, often with broadly worded reasons.
  • The next authorization request will indicate whether stricter criteria are being applied.
