Overview

• San Isidro prosecutors formally imputed Julieta Makintach for cohecho pasivo, abuse of authority, breach of duties, malversación de caudales públicos and peculado de servicios, and asked for her destitution/desafuero.
• Investigators cite security-camera footage and witness testimony to allege she enabled and joined filming for the ‘Justicia Divina’ documentary, including granting access to Tribunales de San Isidro when it was closed.
• A preliminary hearing on September 24 will set the evidence and witness list for the juicio político before the jury decides on removal.
• Makintach remains suspended with 40% of her salary withheld, and the acceptance of complaints nullified the resignation she filed in June.
• Her defense rejects the accusations, prepares nullity motions and recusals, and plans a federal complaint alleging illegal surveillance.
