An investigation into alleged corruption within Argentina’s National Disability Agency (ANDIS) has moved into a forensic phase. The probe involves allegations of bribery, diverted medication purchases, and overpricing.

Forensic experts from the National Gendarmerie’s Criminalistics and Forensic Studies Directorate are scheduled to conduct a technical analysis of audio recordings attributed to Diego Spagnuolo, the former director of ANDIS. These recordings reportedly contain conversations where Spagnuolo mentions that the agency was being defrauded. Some of the audio also mentions alleged kickbacks involving government officials, specifically naming Karina Milei and Eduardo ‘Lule’ Menem, with claims of a ‘3% return’ intended for the Presidency. The recordings also reportedly mention the drug company Suizo Argentina.

Spagnuolo’s legal defense has contested the authenticity of the recordings, asserting they are fake and have been manipulated using artificial intelligence, citing the presence of ‘18 micro-cuts.’ His lawyer, Mauricio D’Alessandro, contends the recordings are part of an intelligence operation. Despite these claims and Spagnuolo’s refusal to provide a voice sample for comparison—a move his defense argues is to avoid self-incrimination—investigators will proceed with the forensic study to determine the technical integrity of the files and whether the audio has been edited or altered.
