Overview

• The UIF lodged a criminal complaint on August 14 with federal prosecutor Carlos Stornelli at Comodoro Py Federal Court No. 4, accusing an external breach of secrecy under law 25.246.
• The leak involved a confidential Reporte de Operación Sospechosa filed by a bank for US$800,000 in transfers into Zefico S.A., where Santiago Caputo is listed as the sole employee.
• UIF president Paul Starc ordered a technical review that confirmed no routine staff member accessed the ROS record except for a one-time check he personally authorized.
• Journalistic probes have spotlighted Lucas and María Costa as the sources of the US$800,000 transfers and flagged inconsistencies in their family-donation explanations.
• The complaint names no individual suspects, directing the federal inquiry toward identifying who leaked the ROS and any outside collaborators.
