Court Tightens CFK’s House-Arrest Visits After Nine-Person Meeting

The tribunal cited a social-media photo of a simultaneous nine-person visit that lacked specific authorization.

Overview

  • The new regime limits non-family visits to a maximum of three people at a time, no longer than two hours, and up to two visits per week.
  • Any visitor outside family, medical or legal teams must secure individual, express, prior authorization with a detailed justification and specified date and time.
  • The court rescinded a November 14 approval and ordered the Dirección de Control y Asistencia de Ejecución Penal to supervise compliance with entry-by-entry reports.
  • Judges warned that further breaches could trigger revocation of house arrest under Article 34 of law 24.660 and transfer to an ordinary prison.
  • Cristina Fernández de Kirchner disputed the decision on X, asserting the economists were authorized and criticizing media and judicial actors.
