Argentine Prosecutor Orders Forensic Review of $LIBRA Chats With Javier and Karina Milei

A judicial ruling blocking forced attendance has pushed lawmakers to seek unrestricted access to the case file.

Overview

  • Federal prosecutor Eduardo Taiano directed DATIP to extract and analyze all calls, messages, emails, documents and images from seized devices, including deleted content, linking the $LIBRA accused to President Javier Milei and Karina Milei.
  • The order targets communications by Mauricio Novelli and Sergio Morales across WhatsApp, Telegram, X, Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn, and flags references to Tech Forum Argentina and the February 14 token launch.
  • Investigators will review call logs and chats across specified windows tied to documented visits to Casa Rosada and the Olivos residence, using public audience records and presidential entry data to define key dates.
  • Members of the congressional $LIBRA subcommission met Judge Marcelo Martínez de Giorgi to request unrestricted access to the judicial file and will formalize the petition in writing, with the judge signaling a prompt reply.
  • Martínez de Giorgi rejected using security forces to compel officials’ appearances, prompting an opposition appeal, as compliance with summonses remained low with figures such as Hayden Davis and Justice Minister Mariano Cúneo Libarona declining to appear.
