Overview

Opposition councilors in Córdoba filed a criminal complaint alleging corruption within the municipal licensing and inspection system for nightlife venues. The complaint alleges an organized structure involving illegal payments, referred to as ‘la semanal’, used to avoid closures or unfavorable inspections.

In response, municipal and provincial authorities met to discuss public safety and defend the transparency of current control schemes. Vice Mayor Javier Pretto and the head of the Inspection and Control Entity, Ezequiel Hormaeche, stated that the local administration has been proactive and noted that the municipality had previously filed criminal complaints to investigate irregularities.
