Federal judge Ariel Lijo ordered on Thursday the lifting of banking, tax, and anti-money laundering secrecy for Chief of Cabinet Manuel Adorni, his wife Bettina Angeletti, their firm AS Innovación Profesional, and six women listed as lenders. The measure, requested by prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita, aims to reconstruct Adorni's financial circuit since January 2022 in an alleged illicit enrichment case.
Federal judge Ariel Lijo signed the resolution at the request of prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita, authorizing access to bank accounts, financial products, transfers, investments, and tax records of those involved. The decision expands the probe into Adorni's assets, his wife, and their circle before and after his government entry.
The order covers the couple's firm AS Innovación Profesional and six women: Silvia Pais, Norma Zuccolo, Beatriz Viegas, Claudia Bibiana Sbabo, Graciela Molina, and Victoria María José Cancio, listed as alleged lenders or creditors. The prosecution aims to trace loans and financial movements.
Pollicita requested data from January 1, 2022, including deposits, credits, digital wallets, and sworn statements on income and personal assets taxes. It also lifts anti-money laundering secrecy to examine unjustified operations.
This phase intensifies the case, shifting from declared assets to actual money flows, without yet implying criminal liability.
