Chamber of Deputies Activates $LIBRA Probe, Approves Rules to Compel Testimony

The commission sent nine questions to President Javier Milei with a five‑day deadline for responses.

Overview

  • Under president Maximiliano Ferraro, the commission approved a reglamento whose Article 8 allows it to seek judicial assistance to secure witness appearances and request searches or document seizures.
  • Lawmakers voted to summon Karina Milei along with officials and private actors including Manuel Adorni, Guillermo Francos, Alejandro Melik, María Florencia Zicavo, Mauricio Novelli, Manuel Terrones Godoy and Sergio Morales.
  • Deputies advanced evidentiary requests to 16 wallets and exchanges to trace the pool of liquidity and 109 transfers linked to $LIBRA, and sought Casa Rosada and Olivos entry logs for key figures.
  • A bloc of 14 opposition members issued a preliminary report describing $LIBRA as a rug‑pull fraud and asserting that Javier Milei’s public post provided essential facilitation.
  • Members of the governing alliance largely abstained or withdrew, denouncing overreach, as the commission set a work plan that runs through the campaign with a final report slated for November 10.
