A prosecutor asked to restrict calls to the detainee for the assassination attempt against Cristina Kirchner

Prosecutor Carlos Rívolo asked to restrict phone calls to Fernando Sabag Montiel, accused of the assassination attempt against Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, days after the accused gave an interview to a television channel. Given the institutional gravity of the facts that are the subject of this investigation, and with the sole purpose of preserving his safety, I will have to suggest to the Court that it be decided to restrict the communications received by the detainee in the prison, to his defense and / or relatives specifically authorized by him, “requested the prosecutor in a request submitted to federal judge María Eugenia Cappuchetti. When he tried to shoot the former president in the face when she arrived at her home in Recoleta, Sabag Montiel spends his days staying in the Continuous Observation Area (AOC) sector, in cell No. 01 dependent on the Psychiatric Service for Men. This is clear from a report by the Federal Penitentiary Service. The defendant has not wanted to receive a visit from his lawyer for months. In dialogue with C5N, Sabag Montiel said he acted alone and said he did not regret what he did on the night of September 1. These statements would have been made from a cell phone that he accessed in the prison. Days later, he wrote a letter from jail in which he accused the vice president of having “bought” the official lawyers representing him. “They broke my cell phone at the PSA and stole my musical instruments and my three cars. They bribed Leandro Ulliarte, Brenda Ulliarte’s father. CFK gave him a house to hold us hostage,” he said. He denounced that they have him “kidnapped” and that they do not let him communicate with anyone or allow him to receive visitors and said: “They want to make me disappear and blame Mauricio Macri.”
