Overview

• Entrepreneur Jonathan Kovalivker appeared at the Comodoro Py federal courts with his lawyer and voluntarily handed over his cellphone.
• Federal Judge Sebastián Casanello asked the Central Bank to block safe-deposit boxes tied to ex-officials Diego Spagnuolo and Daniel Garbellini and to Jonathan, Emmanuel, and Eduardo Kovalivker at the request of prosecutor Franco Picardi.
• Investigators executed searches at the homes of the suspects and at the National Disability Agency, seizing phones and computers in what has been dubbed the 'audios' case.
• Police on Friday seized US$266,000 and ARS 7,000,000 from Emmanuel Kovalivker during a stop in Nordelta.
• Authorities indicate the probe, opened about five days ago, is focused on securing potential evidence rather than making arrests at this stage.
