Overview
- Federal prosecutor Fabiana de León requested three years and six months for Andrea del Boca as a necessary participant in fraud, four years and six months for Julio De Vido with perpetual disqualification from public office, and four years for former UNSAM rector Carlos Ruta.
- The prosecution asked the court to order joint restitution of US$3,126,000 to the State and asset forfeiture to recover the alleged loss.
- According to the allegation, the project was financed through a triangulation with UNSAM via a direct award that bypassed tenders and granted the producer exclusive international commercialization rights for 60 months with a 60‑month renewal.
- Investigators say the series carried a budget of about ARS 36.58 million, never aired in Argentina, and the producer collected roughly 76% of the contracted amount.
- Del Boca’s defense asserts full contractual compliance, cites a Supreme Court expert review that found no irregularities, and plans closing arguments before a verdict expected in the coming weeks.
