The investigation of the "Chocolate" scandal is expanded: the owners of the suspected cards will be summoned in the Buenos Aires Senate. The prosecutor set a date for the testimonies of the first group of alleged employees.
There are 39 people who would work in the provincial upper house. They would have withdrawn more than $30 million per month from "ghost employees" of the Senate. They are accused of being part of an alleged illicit association dedicated to defrauding the State with contracts. The Senate trail of the “Chocolate” was opened at the end of last year.
