Overview

  • Police executed at least 14 court-ordered searches at the ANDIS headquarters, Suizo Argentina and several private residences overnight.
  • Investigators seized computers, phones and procurement records; in Nordelta, authorities recovered roughly US$200,000–$240,000 in cash and took Emmanuel Kovalivker’s phone from his vehicle.
  • Diego Spagnuolo was located in a gated community in Pilar and his cellphone was secured for forensic analysis, with judicial sources indicating there were no arrest orders.
  • The government removed Spagnuolo from the agency and appointed Alejandro Vilches as interventor as an audit of ANDIS moves forward.
  • The complaint by lawyer Gregorio Dalbón references alleged “8%” returns via Suizo Argentina and names Karina Milei and Eduardo “Lule” Menem, assertions that await forensic verification.
