Rosario Lufrano, president of Radio y Televisión Argentina (RTA), used the central newscast of Public TV this Friday night to

disqualify deputy Waldo Wolff

, from Juntos por el Cambio.

And he said that he is going to give explanations to the National Congress for the irregularities committed during his administration.

While the newsletter's zócalo assured that "Waldo Wolff rebuked Public TV,"

the head of the public media said that "lying is not freedom of expression. Lying is lying," said Lufrano, in relation to the fact that the opposition legislator denounced censorship and he complained this afternoon because he was not invited to Public TV, despite the fact that he is the president of the Commission on Freedom of Expression of the Chamber of Deputies.

Public TV showed the video of the mobile that was this afternoon in Comodoro Py, with Wolff's complaints.

And the newscaster presented two short appearances of Wolff from Congress, made in March and last November, while

Lufrano said that it showed that "Wolff is lying

" when he says he is not invited to Public TV.

In addition, the president of RTA (the company that manages Public TV and National Radio) once again questioned Wolff and "a group of opposition deputies who

are praying that 'the money does not appear'"

, in reference to the $ 11.4 millions that were irregularly withdrawn in cash from the canal.

Lufrano stated: "What happened with the fiction project

Los amores prohibidos de Belgrano

, I want to clarify that the investigation was initiated by us, I requested an internal audit, a summary investigation, I demanded and accepted resignations from some of those responsible, and

The money was recovered

, exactly $ 8,085,940 that was deposited again in the bank and $ 3,314,060 that is contained in invoices and official remittances ".

'I already know that the truth has died a long time ago, and unfortunately for a sector of the country, but not for us and we have absolutely told the truth, in time and in the appropriate ways. In addition, I want to say that

I am very happy to be able to go to the Bicameral Commission to tell Congress about

all this, "Lufrano added, from the central newscast of Public TV.


It is that this Friday afternoon the blocks of Together for Change and the Front of All agreed to summon Lufrano to the National Congress,

to explain his personal expenses

, with the "petty cash" of the channel, which were denounced this week by the Office of the Attorney for Administrative Investigations,

as well as the withdrawal of $ 11.4 million in cash

to pay the providers of the series Los amores prohibidos de Belgrano.

In fact, there are two judicial investigations for the withdrawal of the $ 11.4 million and

ten officials have already been displaced since that scandal broke out

two months ago, including two executive directors of Public TV and the internal auditor who should investigate this irregularity. .

"The audit was sent to court," Lufrano finally assured. A revealing fact, since

until now it was not known that this audit had been completed

and the RTA authorities had the information about what happened with the irregular withdrawal of $ 11.4 million.
