Overview

  • Federal prosecutor Agustín Chit shifted the accusation against Valentina Olguín to contrabando simulado en concurso real, a more serious customs offense.
  • Olguín must appear with her defense on November 4 to respond to the new imputations before the prosecutor.
  • The federal court in Tucumán prohibited Olguín from leaving the country as the investigation advances.
  • The case began with a complaint from Tucumán governor Osvaldo Jaldo and involves the alleged use of the CUITs of four other governors: Axel Kicillof, Sergio Ziliotto, Marcelo Orrego and Rogelio Frigerio.
  • Customs and FedEx records traced at least five shipments in September–October 2024 from U.S. retailer Revolve to a Núñez address, with an estimated fiscal loss of about US$1,280.
