An Argentine federal prosecutor has charged former President Mauricio Macri (2015-2019) with a crime of illicit enrichment for not having declared his true assets in his affidavit before assuming the Presidency of the country.
The federal prosecutor Ramiro González has thus addressed a complaint filed last week by the Anti-Corruption Office, as reported by the Argentine news agency ., which cites judicial sources.
Macri has been denounced by the Anti-Corruption Office for malicious omission in his sworn statements, illicit enrichment and a possible money laundering related to the actions of the “blind trust” that he named when he took office through a company called Agro G SA
