Overview
- The Banfield coach and his wife filed a criminal complaint naming administrators Diego Lacki and Macarena Núñez after paying up front for pre-construction units whose promised monthly rents stopped.
- His filing alleges investor funds were diverted abroad, including a $93,000 transfer he sent to a U.S. account at Lacki’s request while he was working in Honduras.
- Reports indicate about 160 people are affected and that multiple projects in La Plata, including at least eleven buildings and a hotel, remain halted with partially built structures.
- ABES changed management in late 2025 in a plan presented as avoiding bankruptcy, and investors say the new operators refuse to recognize prior contributions.
- Complaints have been lodged across several fiscalías and may be unified, with no recovery of funds or resumption of construction reported so far.
