translated from Spanish: General Pablo Onetto was prosecuted for tax fraud, including a 7-day trip to Disney

Visiting Minister Romy Rutherford subjected Army Brigadier General Pablo Onetto Jara to the process of authoring two crimes of tax fraud, on the so-called “Tourism Companies” ridge, on overseas service commissions made by officers and NCOs. The magistrate prosecuted Onetto Jara, the army’s current director of Projects and Research, for her responsibility for defrauding a total sum of $18,403,631, and ordered that she serve pre-trial detention in Peñalolén’s Military Police Regiment No. 1, pending the Martial Court’s review of the case. According to the background, detailed by El Mercurio, the military was posted abroad from July 2012 to early August 2013, as a student at the Inter-American Defense College in Washington, USA, on duty with his family. At the time, one of the most striking episodes of this cause was recorded: he went to Disney for 7 days and 6 nights with his family, in an all-inclusive hotel, which was coordinated by the Tupper agency.In his statement to Minister Rutherford, Onetto claims that he restored the ticket money to the account opened by the Army after the controversy over the passages.” He states that he now understands that this has nothing to do with legal proceedings, but that he made this restitution on the account the Army told him to rest easy on his conscience and return what does not correspond to the one-way tickets to the United States. He adds that if he had known it couldn’t be done, he wouldn’t have moved on with his family to Disney.”
