Since last Thursday afternoon, Cristina Fernández has been electronically monitored by an ankle bracelet. This system doesn't record the exact location within the residence, but is intended to ensure that the authorized perimeter is not exceeded as part of the benefit of house arrest.
Although on two occasions the former head of state was reminded of the obligation to "refrain from engaging in behaviors that may disturb the peace of the neighborhood and/or disrupt the peaceful coexistence of its inhabitants," last Sunday, the mayor of Quilmes, Mayra Mendoza, a leader of La Cámpora, called on supporters to gather near the residence "because Cristina will come out on the balcony at any moment."
Subsequently, she called for a flag-waving demonstration, but it was the former president herself who requested that the gathering take place in Parque Lezama and not in front of her home in Constitución.
When setting the conditions of the arrest, TOF 2 ordered that within 48 hours a list be submitted of people included in the categories of family members, medical professionals, lawyers, and security personnel.
Complying with that deadline, on Monday the defense submitted the requested document to judges Gorini, Basso, and Giménez Uriburu.
If the former head of state wishes to maintain the presence of her personal secretaries, she must include them in the list, even if they are outside the categories indicated by the court. In that case, they may only enter the residence once the judges review what has been submitted and specifically authorize their access.
