Justice granted house arrest to the corrupt Julio De Vido, and he will serve his sentence in his mansion.

History of stroke and an acute myocardial infarction suffered on April 1 of this year, which resulted in an angioplasty with stent implantation.

The file details that the former official requires permanent treatment with anticoagulants (apixaban) and antiarrhythmics (amiodarone), in addition to a healthcare infrastructure that the prison supposedly lacks for a “high cardiovascular risk patient”.

However, for the Argentine people, these ailments do not erase the criminal responsibility for the looting of the State. De Vido is serving a sentence of 4 years in prison and perpetual special disqualification for the crime of fraudulent administration to the detriment of the public administration in the context of the “Once 2 Tragedy”, that fateful event in February 2012 where state negligence caused the death of 52 people. It is worth noting that, according to information, this sentence also encompasses crimes of illicit enrichment committed during the looted Kirchnerist decade.

Although the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation upheld his sentence in November of last year, justice continues to be elusive regarding the effective enforcement of the sentence in a common prison. While the former minister takes refuge in his property in Zárate, he still has to respond in trials such as the Notebooks case, where the payment of million-dollar bribes in public works is being analyzed. In light of this situation, the government's determination under Milei to reform the system and end the impunity of the corrupt becomes more necessary than ever.
