Presidential consultant Caputo met with criminal complaints about spit with deputy

The deputy Facundo Mans submitted a criminal complaint against the president's advisor, Santiago Caputo, for “forced threats”. In the report that was sent to the Federal Justice on Tuesday evening, Mans Caputo accused him of “intimidated” him after President Javier Milei's opening speech before the congress on Saturday.

The tense exchange between Mans and Caputo emerged after trying to try the former to interrupt Milei as he gave his speech to start the legislative year. Film material and images of the session showed that the legislature held up a national constitution to the President to question it.

“[During the speech]I started to hear how he comes from a balcony, ”said Mans in his complaint and added that it came from Caputo and his companions. “[Caputo] Watched an intimidating gesture for me, “he said, describing a hand movement that was generally used to say:” I watch you. ”

After the complaint, Caputo screamed at him. “You can't hear me? You will hear me now! “He screamed. The document continues to say that the deputy Pablo Juliano said he also heard Caputo threats.” I will open them, “said the president's advisor, although the complaint has not been heard that it did not hear that.

Mans left the bottom of the lower house when the talk was over and gave an interview when Caputo suddenly approached him. This can be seen in videos that were recorded by people who were nearby.

“Lord. Caputo came to my face very intimidatingly. He raised his right hand and put her on my face, in another clear and obviously enemy action,” said Mans. He also described what Caputo said to his ear. “You must have a very clean recording to do what you did” were the alleged words of the presidential consultant with another threat: ” Not me, you will get to know me. “

Mans added that Caputo “” credited “him” twice on his chest “. He also accused one of Caputo's companions to “overthrown” him and hit him with his chest. He said that this person might have been “libertarian influencer Franco Antunes, better known as Fran Fijap, who stood next to him and covered the camera of a journalist who filmed the scene.

Manes said that at that moment he also felt “two strokes in the kidney area”, but he couldn't see who did it.

“There is no doubt for us that this constitutes the crime of forced threats,” says the presentation, because “he intended to stop the data subject to fulfill his functions as a national deputy” and no longer criticize the criticism of Milei and “reconcile other legislators”.

In the presentation it was also pointed out that Caputo not only interferes with President Milei's main consultant, but also in many state activities and companies, even though he has no fixed tasks. “
