Karina Milei Skips $LIBRA Hearing Again as Deputies Weigh Forcing Testimony

The commission will request that she set a firm date for questioning at her office, then seek judicial authorization for police assistance if she declines.

Overview

  • After a second no‑show without explanation, the opposition-led $LIBRA committee voted to make a final outreach to interview Karina Milei at the Casa Rosada before moving to coercive measures.
  • Justice Minister Mariano Cúneo Libarona did not attend but sent a medical excuse, while other summoned figures — CNV’s Roberto Silva, UIF’s Paulo Starc, and promoters Mauricio Novelli, Manuel Terrones Godoy and Sergio Morales — were also absent.
  • Lawmakers said they will press Judge Julián Ercolini to rule on an existing request to compel Alejandro Melik and María Florencia Zicavo, and are preparing a new filing to seek police assistance to secure additional testimonies if needed.
  • Members of the commission disclosed Binance records that they say show account activity by businessman Novelli aligning with visits to Olivos around the coin’s launch, and highlighted cash movements linked to him reported to the panel.
  • On the judicial track, Judge María Servini asked the central bank to lift bank secrecy on accounts tied to Javier and Karina Milei, while the Senate plans plenary meetings Wednesday to consider interpellations that include questions about the $LIBRA case.
