Overview

• The former Tucumán governor is serving a 16-year sentence under house arrest in a Puerto Madero apartment monitored by an electronic ankle bracelet with strict court-imposed conditions.
• Video footage released late July shows Alperovich smoking on his home detention balcony, sparking public scrutiny over the health-based justification for his confinement.
• Judicial sources have stated that smoking within private property does not breach the terms of his home detention regime.
• After announcing a separation in May, Marianela Mirra has moved back into Alperovich’s residence and publicly defended his legal standing and adherence to the law.
• Mirra argued that his home detention was granted due to his compliance with legal procedures rather than health reasons and called for public restraint pending judicial review.
