Two Argentine police officers, retired commissioner Graciela Molina and her daughter Victoria Cancio, testified for nearly three hours on Monday before federal prosecutors in Buenos Aires, confirming they provided a US$100,000 cash loan to Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni (Argentina's head of government administration), of which US$70,000 remains outstanding. The money was handed over in cash at a notary's office in November 2024, with a two-year repayment term at 11% annual interest, and prosecutors are now investigating whether the funds were used by Adorni's wife to immediately purchase a property at a country club in Buenos Aires province. The case, centred on alleged illicit enrichment, has drawn scrutiny over the role of the notary who reportedly introduced the parties, and further witnesses — including retirees who sold Adorni a second apartment via an interest-free mortgage scheme — are scheduled to testify later this week.
