"They are jets, criminals, assume what they are

.

"

Without euphemisms, without phrases of occasion, without hints.

Jorge Lanata responded to the final allegations in the corruption case known as the Route of money K and pointed out in the accountant of Lázaro Báez, Daniel Pérez Gadín, who had accused the journalist of inventing the cause financed by vulture funds and of having traveled to Seychelles as a tourist.

At the beginning of his program on

Radio Miter

, Lanata referred to the chronicle of the final arguments of the trial published by Clarín, spoke of a

"pathetic" and "outrageous"

story

for the country

and assured that it cannot be erased "even if they set fire Commodore Py ".

"Unless they burn Comodoro Py, which I do not rule out, it will be difficult to erase all this. But even when they burn Comodoro Py, there are people who saw what you did. And we are not few, we are a lot," he remarked.

When she says "you", Lanata refers to Lázaro and Martín Báez, Pérez Gadín, Fabián Rossi, Federico Elaskar and Leonardo Fariña, whom she named more than once and treated as "jets and criminals." 

Ironically, the driver insisted: "It will be very difficult for everything they did to be erased. Because even when the cause is erased, people know it. And we are going to repeat it. And

if I don't have a radio, I'm going to 15th birthday, to the Bar Mitzvahs

, to say that you are a jet, that Báez is a jet, that they would have to remain in jail. And if they leave it is by a miracle of nature. "


Lanata uncovered this cause in his program Periodismo Para Todos in 2013 and was one of those pointed out by Báez's accountant, who -among laments- spoke of a conspiracy theory between the owner of the main vulture fund,

Paul Singer

, and the journalist.

Lanata replied: "Trying to disguise your eagerness with stupidities such as the sovereignty of I don't know what, the vulture funds ... Stop fucking.

I did not go to Seychelles for tourism. We stayed one day.

If it was tourism, it was tourism for premature ejaculation. We went to find the mother company of that story. "   

Unlike the causes such as

Future Dollar

or Pact with Iran, the journalist considers that the Route of Money K is "incontestable".

And he described: "They all saw the people in La Rosadita counting money on television. They were not actors. They were Lazaro Báez's son, Pérez Gadín, Rossi. We saw this happen. There was Fariña, who first said what he said and then he said On the contrary. There was Elaskar, who at his house told me what all of La Rosadita's maneuvers were like. How do you erase this? "

The day before, the defendants had offered final arguments at the hearing of the Oral Court in Federal Criminal 4, between laments, conspiracy theories and the law of

"whoever can save himself

.

"

Thus, Martín Báez, the businessman's son, said that they “destroyed his life” in an 80-second plea, Fabián Rossi pointed out that the scandal earned him his divorce from Ileana Calabró and businessman Carlos Molinari was bankrupt, among other reactions.

The verdict would be known next week

.

The prosecution claimed 12 years in prison for Lázaro Báez - detained since June 2016-.

For their children too: 9 for Martín, 5 years for Leandro and 4 and a half years in prison for Melina and Luciana.

His defense demanded absolution.


The representative of the Public Prosecutor's Office also requested penalties for Pérez Gadín (8 years), the lawyer Jorge Chueco (8 years), Fariña (5 years) and the financier Federico Elaskar (4 and a half years in prison).

The complaints of the Anticorruption Office, the AFIP and the Financial Information Unit also requested effective prison sentences.
