The detainee for the attempted assassination of Vice President Cristina Kirchner, Brenda Uliarte, appointed this Friday as a private lawyer Carlos Telleldín, the former accused as an alleged necessary participant in the attack on the AMIA, after this week his official defense accepted the partial sending of the case to trial.
Uliarte thus replaced his official defense attorney Gustavo Kollman, at a time when the case could be sent to trial in the section referring to the accusation against him and the other two detainees, his boyfriend Fernando Sabag Montiel and Gabriel Carrizo, judicial sources informed Telam.
The appointment of Telleldín by Uliarte was notified to the parties this Friday by means of a document from the court that leads the case, in charge of María Eugenia Capuchetti
Telleldín was detained for almost a decade accused as an alleged necessary participant in the attack on the AMIA, in prison he studied and graduated as a lawyer, a profession he has practiced since he was released after being acquitted in a first trial for that terrorist attack in 2003.
In 2020, Telleldín was subjected to a second trial by order of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation that revoked the acquittal regarding his role as a supplier of the van used as a car bomb on July 18, 1994 against the headquarters of the Jewish mutual in Pasteur 633. In this second oral argument he was also acquitted.
When Uliarte was arrested last year, there was speculation that she would appoint Telleldín as private defender, but then she did not sign the appointment and accepted the official defense.

Uliarte is being held in pretrial detention as an alleged co-author of the attempted murder of Cristina Kirchner on September 1, when her partner Sabag Montiel fired a gun a short distance from the Vice President's face, but the bullet did not come out.
The young woman was prosecuted for being co-author of "qualified homicide, aggravated by the use of firearms, treachery and the premeditated contest of two or more people, in the degree of attempt".
Capuchetti consulted the defenses this week about the closure of this part of the case for sending it to oral trial and the until now official defender of Uliarte, Kollman, showed his acceptance in a letter in which he asked that it be passed to that procedural stage "as soon as possible."
The complaint of the Vice President opposed the elevation to partial trial, without exhausting the investigation into the possible link of PRO deputy Gerardo Milman and other open lines in the investigation.
