Financial Scandal in Argentine Truckers' Union Leadership

The allegedly financial operations took place at a time when the social organization was going through an increasingly visible financial crisis, with payment delays, deteriorating benefits, internal unrest, and growing signs of exhaustion in the union's healthcare structure, according to La Nación. In this context, the figure of Zulet once again became the center of attention. The political problem for Moyano is evident. What emerges is the picture of an aging union leadership, with a disputed succession, a family internal conflict that is increasingly less contained, and a social organization in crisis, while the business nucleus closest to the trucking boss continues to occupy key positions in the management of funds, services, and supplier companies. To this were added testimonies from members describing delays, lack of specialists, co-pays, reduced medication coverage, and a progressive administrative deterioration. In parallel, the other front complicating the Moyano faction remains open in Mar del Plata. In the same circuit, companies also appear, such as Iarai, Aconray, and Dixey, which for years have been pointed to as central pieces of the business model built around the trucking union structure. The most sensitive point is not just the flow of money, but the suspicion that this movement could have coincided with a critical moment for the social organization. OSCHCA has long faced criticism for a decline in the quality of care, reduction of services, conflicts with workers, and a deficit that, according to various journalistic reconstructions and union sources, would be of enormous magnitude. Between September 5 and 17, 2025, allegedly nearly $900 million were transferred from the accounts of the Truckers' Union and the social organization OSCHCA to trusts and structures linked to the business environment of Liliana Zulet, wife of Hugo Moyano and a central figure in the administration of the holding that has orbited the union for years. The sequence is not unnoticed for either the amounts or the context. Within the trucking world, no one is unaware that an audit that goes from the hotel to the union's central accounts could open a much more uncomfortable scenario for Moyano. That is why what lies behind this new revelation is not just a remarkable banking operation. If the now-known transfers lead to new judicial proceedings or deeper requests for explanations, the historic trucking boss could again be under pressure due to a suspicion that has accompanied him for years: that the line between union assets, the social organization, and private businesses has been too blurred. At 82 years old, he no longer faces only external questioning but also an internal erosion that wears away the clan's authority over one of the most powerful unions in the country. Last November, the conflict escalated with protests in hospitals in Avellaneda, San Justo, Villa Martelli, and the Sanatorio Antártida, where employees denounced salary delays and pointed directly at Zulet, whom they attribute operational control of the system. A judicial investigation for alleged irregularities in the Hotel 15 de Diciembre is advancing there, where two former union leaders have already been accused: Claudio Balaci and Paulo Villegas. The case, led by prosecutor Carlos David Bruna, analyzes a supposed multi-million dollar scam and keeps accounting documentation under observation that, if deepened, could project its effects on other areas of the union's financial structure. That is, while the medical fund showed signs of suffocation and the system began to creak, a multi-million portion of funds allegedly flowed towards recently created trusts that appear connected to firms historically associated with the economic scheme managed by Zulet. According to the reconstruction known in recent hours, there were five transfers distributed in just twelve days. Part of those funds allegedly had as their destination the Thoth, Khasis, and Dhanvantari trusts, all with corporate and tax ties that lead back to the business structure linked to the family clan. Buenos Aires, April 12, 2026 - Total News Agency - TNA - The most delicate front of the trucking world was once again exposed with a piece of data that, due to its volume, timing, and destination, shook the union world and revived old suspicions about the management of the guild's funds. Two of the allegedly transfers would have been completed on September 5; another on the 9th; and the last two on the 16th and 17th of the same month.
