Jorge Taiana, the current candidate for national deputy for the province of Buenos Aires for the Kirchnerist front Fuerza Patria, was arrested on June 26, 1975 during the constitutional government of María Estela Martínez de Perón.
His arrest, which lasted until 1982, occurred as a result of a raid on his residence where military weapons, explosives, and documents linking him to the left-wing terrorist group Montoneros were found.
The raid was carried out by the Argentine Federal Police in Taiana's apartment, located at Malabia 3124/26, 9th floor B, in Buenos Aires. According to the official records of case No. 11,120 of the Federal Court, the police intervention made it possible to seize military weapons, projectiles, explosives, and documents related to subversive activities.

The operation included the arrest of both Taiana and his then wife, Nora Graciela Iturraspe de Taiana, known by the alias "Inés," who was also a member of Montoneros.
The procedure was carried out under Law 20,840, which penalized activities considered subversive or extremist. According to the search records of the case, preserved in folios 1 to 12, the seized items included four grenades, four kilograms (8.8 pounds) of aluminized gunpowder, two electric detonators, two initiation systems for the manufacture of explosive devices, and various components for their assembly.
A bomb under the child's crib
One of the most concerning findings was a "booby trap" located under the crib of Nicolás, the couple's son, who at that time was just over one year old. When this device was handled, a signal light was immediately activated, which demonstrated the direct risk to the child.

In addition, the officers seized another drawer from the bedroom furniture, identity documents, stamps, provisional plates, and sheets with inscriptions related to Montoneros, as well as forty copies of the magazine "Evita Montonera," from January 1975.
Case No. 11,120 had been considered lost for decades, but it recently resurfaced in connection with an administrative procedure involving Taiana's ex-wife. The judicial documents precisely detail the magnitude of the seized items and the context of the arrest, which directly involved the family and the couple's residence.
This episode in Jorge Taiana's life, dating back to 1975, is now gaining public relevance in the context of his electoral campaign, since it demonstrates his connection to subversive activities.
