The president of the Senate, Cristina Kirchner, called a special session for this

Wednesday at 4:00

p.m. to reverse the transfers of

three magistrates who intervened in corruption cases that are investigating her

.

Last week, the Senate Settlement Commission ruled that chambermaids

Leopoldo Bruglia

and

Pablo Bertuzzi

and Judge

 Germán Castelli

must return to their original positions and thus leave the courts where in recent years they intervened in corruption cases that They are investigating the vice president today.

Now, in the session called by Cristina, it is discounted that this opinion will be approved by the ruling party, which has a large majority in the upper house.

As members of the Federal Chamber, Bruglia and Bertuzzi intervened in the case of the Cuadernos de las Bribes and confirmed the prosecution, among other former officials, of Cristina Kirchner.

The vice president wants the decision of the government of Mauricio Macri, which transferred Bruglia and Bertuzzi from the Federal Oral Court 4 to the Chamber, to be reversed.

In the case of Castelli, who as a member of the Federal Oral Court number 7, which has to begin with the oral stage of the trial of the Notebooks,

Cristina urges his return to an oral court in San Martín

.

Kirchnerism's argument is that none of those three judges

received the Senate's agreement for the positions they currently occupy

and that is why they asked for those transfers and those of seven other magistrates to be reversed.

The opposition, on the other hand, says that the transfers were made correctly and following the legal framework and the former Minister of Justice

Germán Garavano

maintains that from 1993 to date there have been 65 transfers of judges that were made under the same conditions.
