Last January 18, the national deputy of La Libertad Avanza for Salta, Emilia Orozco, released a harsh video in which she made serious allegations about misuse of the provincial medical aircraft. In her message, Orozco targeted Governor Gustavo Sáenz and hinted at serious irregularities that should be investigated.
During the recording, Orozco stated that, in a "hypothetical case," if she had used a medical plane or helicopter for personal purposes, such as attending a soccer match in Buenos Aires, traveling abroad for vacation, meeting with "bribed journalists" or even traveling to another province to detox after a drug overdose, she should be "hanged in Plaza 9 de Julio."
This way, the legislator brought to the table situations that, according to her complaint, would be occurring within the current provincial administration, led by Sáenz.
Although Orozco was careful not to mention proper names directly, her words were interpreted as a strong reference to Governor Gustavo Sáenz himself and his closest circle. Additionally, during the video, she denounced that the medical aircraft would have been used to take a lover on a trip, pointing to a discretionary use of resources that should be exclusively allocated to medical emergencies.
