The journalist Jorge Lanata presented tonight on his PPT Box program , from eltrece, a report on Claudio Scapolán, accused of "narco prosecutor." Moreover, in its traditional publishing, he returned with critical references to quarantine, pointed to Raúl Zaffaroni and he joked about the trial of Cristina Kirchner to Google . "Is the Google Lies coming?" He asked.

Who is Claudio Scapolán? The prosecutor is accused and with a request for lawlessness to be arrested in the framework of a case that is investigating him as the alleged head of an illegal association together with Buenos Aires police. He is accused of building cases under extortion and drug theft.

PPT cited the case of the "Leones Blancos" operation where 1,000 kilos of cocaine were seized. He developed the report: "It was presented by politics as a success, but it was a failure due to all the irregularities that occurred in the procedure, with free drug traffickers and officials investigated."

In that sense, it was reported that of those 1,000 kilos kidnapped, only 480 contained the official record.  The story continues with drugs stopping at a Quilmes player, owned by an officer, and ending up in Mar Chiquita for sale on the Coast.

The program also showed images of Scapolán himself in a garage, along with police officers, where they are investigating whether they allegedly planted drug tests to collect extortion on the basis of multiple irregularities in the procedure.

PPT contacted Scapolán who rejected the accusations, said that the camera in the garage distorts what happened and that it does not enjoy political protection. "I am innocent," he maintained. During the week it will be known whether or not the prosecutor will lose the privileges, which would enable him to go to prison.

“The Government says it wants to reform the Justice. It's not like that. He wants to reform 10% of the Justice. The other 90 does not touch it, ”said Lanata and pointed out that the Scapolán case is located in that 90%.

In the monologue, the PPT host returned with his criticism of the quarantine. "Day 142," Lanata started, looking at the camera, saddened. And then he made a joke about the extent of quarantine and duration of the negotiation between Minister Martin Guzman and private bondholders. "They came head to head to see who made it the longest and Ginés (González García) won".

Lanata also ironic about the statements of the Buenos Aires Minister of Health, Daniel Gollan, about his sayings that it would be "unimaginable" to think now about the possibility of the summer season on the Coast due to the growth of cases and deaths from coronavirus. The Ministry of Health of the Nation reported this Sunday 4,688 new cases of coronavirus and another 84 deaths, in the last 24 hours.

"Put away the bathing suit," said the journalist.

"Cristina (Kirchner) asked Google for an expert opinion. Is the 'Google Lies' campaign coming? 'Are you nervous Larry Page?' " Said the driver. And he put up an apocryphal plaque imitating those of Crónica TV: "Cristina denounced Discépolo and Gardel for the tango 'Chorra'".

Finally, he pointed out to Raúl Zaffaroni: "He said that it is essential and unavoidable to reform the Constitution. Some people take to changing the furniture in the house. Zaffaroni, when he is bored, takes to reform the Constitution. Every you kill boredom as you can. "

PPT leaves the section "The idiot of the week" for last. Who was chosen this time? The president of the Central Bank, Miguel Pesce . It was because the inclusive language  for the body was approved last week .

"Miguel, with the quilombo that there is, with the little machine burning (he refers to the issuance of pesos), with the dollar at $ 130, with the gap that is an abyss, do you think that is one of the bank's priorities? Can you be so stupid, "he closed.
