Federal judge María Servini denounced
a Russian citizen for "fraud
against the public administration"
who would be the main person in charge of an organization that is being investigated for managing the travel of pregnant women from her country to give birth in Argentina and then obtain nationality and the national passport.
Servini warned that
Elena Kuklina
(26) receives the benefit for
Universal Child Allowance (AUH)
when, according to the investigation carried out by her court, she would have an purchasing power that did not justify the perception, judicial sources explained.
The complaint arose from a testimony in the case that investigates the existence of an organization that offered Russian citizens to travel to the country to give birth and obtain citizenship with alleged irregularities in immigration procedures.
The case for alleged fraud against Kuklina was in charge of federal judge Julián Ercolini.
Raid in Puerto Madero by Russian pregnant women.
The magistrate will investigate whether Kuklina committed falsehoods when she processed the AUH payment for the two children she had in the country and they are Argentines.
It did so after receiving reports from the Anses that reported the collection of the benefit during 2022.
According to the investigation that is being processed in his court, Servini determined that the woman
lives in a rented apartment in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Puerto Madero with her partner and their children
.
During the raids, money, documentation and electronic equipment were seized.
In fact, one of the raids in the case was on Saturday in the Le Parc tower in that exclusive Buenos Aires neighborhood.
The case that investigates alleged maneuvers to process the residence in at least 70 cases of pregnant Russian citizens is under summary secrecy but it has been determined so far that a large part of the addresses declared for this process were false, the sources specified.
