Deputies of the Unidos interblock Esteban Paulón, Pablo Juliano, and Maximiliano Ferraro today expanded the complaint against the Chief of Staff, Manuel Adorni, who is accused of illicit enrichment and suspected of the spurious financing of foreign trips for him and his family, as well as incompatibilities between his level of spending, declared income, and the evolution of his assets.
In the new filing, the opposition lawmakers requested that a testimonial statement be taken from notary Adriana Nechevenko, who certified with her signature both the purchase of the luxurious apartment in Caballito last November and the acquisition of a property at the Indio Cuá Golf Club in Exaltación de la Cruz a year earlier, registered in his wife's name, Bettina Angeletti.
The operations are more than suspicious; they must be clarified, stated Paulón on his social network X, as reported by the Argentine News Agency.
After Adorni admitted during a press conference that he lives with his family in the Caballito apartment, which he acquired just two weeks after assuming his current position, it was learned that the operation was formalized for $230,000, despite the property's original value being $340,000.
However, the most striking aspect of the case is that the property was purchased through a non-bank mortgage of $200,000 provided by the two sellers of the apartment, who had acquired it just seven months earlier, in April 2025. The two retired women who provided the non-bank mortgage for Adorni's apartment purchase were identified as Beatriz Viegas, 72, and Claudia Sbabo, 64, who denied knowing the Chief of Staff or having lent him money.
Paulón's hypothesis is that Adorni used these two individuals to simulate a mortgage, thereby justifying the purchase of a high-end property that does not align with his income as a public official, nor with that of his wife. It was obvious that the operation to purchase Adorni's apartment in Caballito was an intermediary to simulate and justify a purchase that has nothing to do with his income.
