Luis Alberto "Chiche" Peluso, former interventor of the Institute of Lottery and Casinos of the Province of Buenos Aires during Daniel Scioli's administration, has returned to a prominent position in the economic activity. Although the charges against him have expired, Peluso has shown skill in navigating power circles and public administration.
The increase in the awarding of state contracts to his company, Linser Sacis, especially since Daniel Scioli's return to the national government, highlights his ability to maintain a prosperous business in public contracting. An investigation linked Peluso to a company in Miami allegedly to "launder gambling profits" and unusual trips to gambling-related destinations.
Linser Sacis, Peluso's cleaning service company, has experienced a marked increase in contracts with the national government, especially since Scioli took office as Secretary of Tourism, Environment, and Sports. Despite his controversial history, the close relationship of trust between Peluso and Scioli is remembered in public administration.
The allegations against Peluso range from alleged money tables in casinos to his supposed role on a casino ship. His connections with figures like Oscar Robinson and Miguel Egea, combined with the Peluso family's business history, raise questions about the transparency in the public contracting processes that benefit Linser Sacis.
On the other hand, Peluso faced allegations of corruption in Buenos Aires lotteries and was accused of being a key economic operator in Scioli's administration. His company, Limpiolux, has also been involved in controversies and legal complaints.
Despite efforts to distance Scioli from Peluso, coincidences persist and fuel speculation about their relationship. The recent surge in multimillion-dollar contracts for Linser Sacis, especially with agencies linked to Scioli, has generated controversy due to the economic bids that were not the lowest.
Ultimately, the consolidation of the state cleaning business for Peluso's firm is marked by questions about competitive fairness and integrity in the awards. Peluso's history in the public business world and his relationship with gambling have been the subject of investigations and allegations, placing the entrepreneur once again at the center of public attention.
