A 37-year-old man was arrested this Wednesday in the Buenos Aires district of Quilmes, accused of having spread death threats against President Javier Milei through a video posted on TikTok. The operation was carried out by agents from the Anti-Terrorism Investigation Unit (DUIA) of the Argentine Federal Police (PFA), following an investigation that allowed them to identify the suspect and track his activity on social media.
The detainee, identified by his initials E.A.M., came under the scrutiny of the Justice system after the dissemination of a video in which he made threats against the national leader. During the investigation, the authorities also detected intense activity on various digital platforms, where he posted messages directed at both political leaders and entertainment figures.
Sources in the case indicated that the man has a criminal record for armed robbery, resisting authority, assault, and firearm abuse. Additionally, he had served a three-year prison sentence for various offenses.
One of the aspects that caught the investigators' attention was the content of his social media posts. The suspect managed at least two Instagram accounts and two Facebook accounts, where he shared videos, photographs, and lengthy messages in which he referred to himself by the nickname "General Mafia", a name he even had tattooed on the upper part of his chest.
