Wanda Nara Testifies in Payarola Fraud Case as Probe Expands

Prosecutors are consolidating new complaints with seized records in a unified inquiry.

Overview

  • Wanda Nara appeared at the Benavídez prosecutor’s office as a witness and told reporters she has nothing to do with the alleged crimes.
  • Case sources say her statement provided details that further complicate the position of her former lawyer, Nicolás Payarola.
  • Payarola has been in custody since November 27 following Nordelta searches requested by prosecutor Cosme Iribarren in a case alleging fraud, fraudulent administration and money laundering.
  • Investigators seized documents, including materials linked to Nara, and are integrating additional complaints from multiple alleged victims.
  • The unified file includes the Montiel family’s US$700,000 accusation and other disputes reported by at least six complainants, with coverage citing roughly US$1.824 million in questioned transactions.
