The Justicialista Party of the province of Buenos Aires accused former president Mauricio Macri on Friday of having organized a "self-
search
" in his fifth Los Abrojos for the alleged breach of quarantine to discredit Peronism.
In a statement, the Buenos Aires PJ maintains that Macri agreed with Judge
Juan Manuel Culotta
, whom they point to as a former student of the Cardenal Newman school, the same one who was the former president, to "
discredit Peronism
and place it in the path of persecution and intolerance ".
"The Peronists
do not walk with a cap and uniform blowing into the Justice
infractions or crimes of our opponents, whom we fight in the discussion of ideas and at the ballot box," says the text, released by different leaders.
In addition to objecting that Culotta "was irregularly appointed as an electoral judge during the Cambiemos administration to exercise direct political control of the elections that year," they emphasize that it was not the Malvinas Argentinas municipality that made the complaint.
The PJ statement against Macri.
"I have never filed a complaint about this fact as reported in some media," wrote the mayor of that district, Leonardo Nardini, sharing the statement.
By redoubling the criticism of Macri, from the Buenos Aires PJ they pointed out that it was the Peronists who suffered political persecution, and gave former president Cristina Kirchner as an example: on her "they
unloaded all the oligarchic and mendacious hatred
through prevaricating judges and prosecutors ", they warn.
The PJ leaders also pointed out that this supposed "
operation
" responds to the result of the latest polls that show a better image of Horacio Rodríguez Larreta than Macri.
I appreciate the statement from the PJ Bonaerense @UnidadPJBsAs about the assembly carried out in the villa of former president Macri.
I have never filed a complaint about this fact as reported in some media.

"We regret that
the internal opposition
begins to settle through judicial maneuvers that seek to oxygenate the decrepit leadership of someone who does not resign himself to accepting that other leaders of his space are more valued than him," the text highlights.
Culotta was the one who ordered the search of "Los Abrojos" to access the images of the security cameras of the place in order to establish if the ex-president violated the quarantine after his return from his trip to Europe.
The measure was requested by the federal prosecutor Jorge Sica, who has delegated the investigation initiated from a complaint against Macri.
Cristina is moved by hatred, and the President executes her order.
If not, explain how a judge orders to search @mauriciomacri's house for a quarantine, when the Government itself denies it on the national chain.
Use energy to solve problems, not to sow hatred.

It is that, a week after his return from Europe, on September 3, and before concluding the 14 days of mandatory quarantine that he had to comply with to return from abroad, Macri received in his fifth Buenos Aires mayors of the PRO, as revealed by one of them through a message posted on the social network Twitter.
The meeting was also attended by the mayor of Olavarría, Ezequiel Galli, and his peer from San Antonio de Areco, Francisco Ratto.
The raid on Macri's villa sparked controversy and questions from the opposition, which targeted the former president and the current head of state, Alberto Fernández.
A week ago we met with the former president @mauriciomacri to talk about many things that concern us about Argentina.
On Sunday he published a letter, concerned about the advance of authoritarianism, what was the response?
They raided his house to intimidate him / us all.
