Juan Debandi is linked to the attack on the TN channel: three individuals involved report to him

Of the four individuals involved, three are part of the political and institutional circle of the leader in Tres de Febrero

The vandal attack against the facilities of TN and Canal 13, which took place this week in Buenos Aires, brought to light a network of connections that directly links the strikers to the political structure surrounding Juan Debandi, a key figure of La Cámpora in the Buenos Aires metropolitan area. Of the four identified individuals involved, three are part of the political and institutional circle that the leader has built in Tres de Febrero.

Three of those involved have a direct connection with Debandi

  • José Lepere, current Secretary of the Interior and former member of La Cámpora.
  • Facundo Lococo, former councilor of the Tres de Febrero district, very close to Debandi.
  • Matías Federici, Debandi's own press officer.
  • Rubén Ezequiel Pavón, student leader at UNTREF, with ties to the university apparatus linked to La Cámpora.
The names, far from going unnoticed, caused repercussions both in the political and media spheres.

Demands from Congress and defense of press freedom

The Chamber of Deputies has already expressed its concern and requested that the ruling party distance itself from what happened."a troubling tolerance of political violence."

A new chapter in the tension between the media and political activism

The attack on TN is not an isolated incident; rather, it is part of a highly polarized context, where the line between activism and violent action seems to be blurring.the limits of activism in a democracy are being put to the test, and society is demanding concrete answers.
