Overview
- Contractor Matías Tabar has told investigators he charged about US$245,000 for renovations at Adorni’s Indio Cúa property, and he reiterated on Sunday that he was not pressured and that ARCA’s notice was a routine fiscal step.
- Forensic work on Tabar’s phone has yielded partial documents, including an invoice for more than 8 million pesos for linens billed to Adorni’s private secretary and reportedly paid in cash.
- ARCA has issued a formal intimación to Tabar seeking detailed 2024–2025 income, invoicing, purchases and vehicle records, and prosecutors are obtaining bank, labor and market-platform data to reconstruct flows.
- Fiscal Gerardo Pollicita met with Procuración accounting experts to prepare a requerimiento de justificación patrimonial, a standard judicial step that, if explanations fall short, typically precedes an indagatoria.
- The probe is producing immediate political pressure as Adorni was removed as government spokesman while President Javier Milei has publicly backed him and opposition blocs push interpellation and a possible censure that is disrupting the legislative calendar.
