The complaint was accompanied by a link made on the Twitter social network account of the free newspaper El Argentino, in which photos, videos and texts were attached in which “It can be seen clearly and precisely how a man of approximately 60 years old, gray-haired and wearing glasses, dressed in a white pilot suit, brown pants and blue sneakers, begins with a megaphone in hand with serious epithets and death threats”.
In another section of the complaint, the lawyer warned that the seriousness of the intimidation was compounded by “The passive attitude of the Police of the City of Buenos Aires, which can be seen in the accompanying video, which allows people who are in the place to throw garbage, paint walls and hang posters with all kinds of threatening signs.”
“From the aforementioned link with the video, there is also a affectionate greeting between the uniformed man and the person leading the attackswhich would be showing us that they would know each other beforehand,” said the text of the complaint.
In addition, the lawyer required that the Minister of Justice and Security of Buenos Aires, Marcelo D’Alessandrogive the “pertinent explanations because witnesses who were at the scene have conclusively stated that police officers did not show up at the scene to prevent the attacks, which lasted nearly two hours.”
The complaint was made for the possible commission of crimes of “intimidation and death threats to the detriment of the Vice President of the Nation Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, damage to property and breach of the duties of officials.”
Protest
This Thursday, protesters who identified themselves as “self-summoned” They threw rubbish and kicked the doors of the headquarters of the Homeland Institute while one of them threatened the vice president with death by “hanging” through a megaphonein front of four members of the City Police who were observing what was happening, without intervening.
The group gathered after 5:00 p.m. in front of the Kirchner party headquarters at 80 Rodríguez Peña Street, in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Congreso, and there they began to throw garbage on the access door to the building, which was closed, while the person from the megaphone said “Cristina, now it’s your turn to hang, it’s the only way to get rid of you”, in front of several Buenos Aires police officers.
The protest, which lasted for more than an hour, at one point blocked the street without anyone interrupting it, with threats that followed one another in the vein of “We are going to hang you here, in front of the Patria Institute and, if not, in front of the Senate”which were made by the person carrying the megaphone and who seemed to be leading the demonstration.
The phrases uttered called for the “armed forces to define themselves” and proposed “searching with machine guns to liquidate them at the moment and hang them”, in reference to the supporters of Kirchnerism, in a succession of death threats that were recorded on video by a journalist passing by.
The death threats against the vice president, who has had offices at the Instituto Patria for several years, were added to the stone attack on the windows of her office in the Senate of the Nation on March 10, and a previous episode against the headquarters of Kirchnerism on Rodríguez Peña street, in June 2021, while the symbol of the gallows has already appeared in several opposition marches with strong anti-Kirchnerist content.
