“Even if the company whose owners are the defendants acquired the property after increasing its capital, This increase will in no way be sufficient to justify the financial transformation “To allegedly acquire such a property, not only because of its size, but because of the luxurious infrastructure located within it,” the complainants point out.

“With a little common sense you can deduce A clear impossibility They add: “To face such a purchase of this size is economical.”

To reach this conclusion, Carrillo, Joffe, and Del Gaiso did work racconto Detailing the corporate structure and the suspected millionaire turnovers rife in Pantano and Conte, denounced in CC-ARI Before Prosilacthere are Tapia and Pablo Tovigino, his assistant and treasurer of the AFA.

Suspicious society and association with Tapia

Luciano Pantano Formed a company called Central Park Drinks SRL In February 2021 with A Capital is 300 thousand pounds With a partner: Diego Adrian Lucero. A year later, in February 2022, Lucero transferred its shares, 50% of the total company, to Anna Lucia Conte. So far nothing eye-catching. but, Everything changes in June 2024 cWhen Lucero gives up most of her shares, she gives them to Conte, but at the same time she resigns from her position as director and It was decided to change the company name by Real Central SRL.

In this modification of the company’s name, not only is its corporate purpose expanded, but there is also an injection of suspicious funds worth P58 million. Two weeks later, in their presentation to the justice, they noted that the company would have taken ownership of the controversy in the Pillar case.

How do you consolidate Real Central SRL with the AFA owner? There is the main number Lucas Lapadwho held a managerial position at Boca Juniors During the term Daniel Angelici In the club now headed by Juan Roman Riquelme.

“In January 2023, Pantano took over as president of the company. Mendoza Wine SA He entered into a partnership with Lucas Labad, former general manager of Boca Juniors, in the vineyard business. Lucas Labad is a well-known figure in the Argentine football ecosystem and has gained notoriety due to his performances General Manager of Atletico Boca Juniors during Daniel Angelese’s management“, explains the document in possession of PROCELAC.

“In this position, he assumed a central role, managing the administrative, contractual and operational areas, and maintaining institutional links with important players in national and international football. His profile was consolidated as a personal profile.” A leader with a strong business footprint Applied to the sports field. After his departure from Boca Juniors, Labad continued to be associated with the football environment through various private business ventures.

“The character of Labad is of particular importance with regard to Pantano since his association and entry into the wine company Mendoza Wines SA would have allowed him to Strengthen and deepen its position in the world of football business This in turn led him to become part of the immediate environment of the high-ranking leader of Argentine football, which we mentioned earlier.”

They point out that “Lucas Lapad’s career, the structure of his relationships in the world of professional football, and his association with Pantano are a big key to understanding the latter’s expansion and positioning, to the point of him being one of the partners of REAL CENTRAL SRL, which He had acquired the said property “With this size and economic value, this should be an important leader.”

Tevez’s tweet against Tofigueno

Carrillo and his commanders also presented numerous posts on social networks as part of the evidence in the file. One of them is a letter from Carlos Tevez against Pablo Tovigino, Treasurer of the Argentine Football Association, dated March 5, 2024.

“It seems to me that too many visits and going to Pilar make you lose a little bit of Tovigino. Aside from the collection of old and imported cars you accumulate in Pilar, also bury the bags you brought from Qatar and from the friendlies in China, the memory of Alibaba,” the idol Zenzi depicted.

For Del Gaiso, a member of parliament for the city of Lelita in Buenos Aires, this suggestive tweet was the perfect solution. The tip of the iceberg of an alleged corruption conspiracy And fake money. “This tweet from @CarlitosTevez from March 2024 may mark the beginning of the investigation into justice.”

“Perhaps a phase will begin where: politics lets go of its hand; those who do not want to see now look; those who have been silent speak; the would-be men in the foreground break down for fear of going to prison, of impunity; and the silence and fear end. Then the phase ends.” “Argentina is in the trap” By @tapiachiqui and TovigginoPablo are losing. “You have to know how to wait for the right times and build something different,” the Buenos Aires lawmaker said.

Yoffie, for his part, was more graphic. He said in an interview with TN: “When you go to the neighborhood, people say it clearly: this is from Czech Tapia, this is from Tovigino“There is no one without the other,” he said. “Tofigino is Tapia, just as Tapia is Tofigino. We have seen containers and collection vehicles coming in.”

He sees the leader of Lilito Pilar communication Also with Admiral Brown ClubWhere Pantano was treasurer. “Is it a coincidence? Nicholas Pantano, was Almirante Brown’s treasurer,” he wrote when the promotion club walked away from the AFC president’s seats amid complaints with a photo of Maximiliano Levi, former Boca Bar The current president of Orenegro hugs him and Pablo Tovigino.

Among the items they also offer are a Helicopter video Descending on reported property. The photos were published by journalist Tomás Díaz Cueto on his Instagram account.

“We cannot ignore that there are public releases (in the press and on social networks) indicating that the properties and assets mentioned – collector cars, race horses, etc. – They could belong to or be associated with Mr. Claudio “Chechi” Tapia“, which reinforces the need to investigate the origin and traceability of the said assets,” the complaint submitted to PROCELAC states.

From monotributistas to millionaires

This can be summarized Economic paths of Luciano Pantano and Anna Lucia Contidenounced by Elisa Carrillo’s Civic Coalition. Until August 2012, Conte was a unilateral shareholder, and in 2020, according to official records, he received the emergency family income benefit, the subsidy paid by the national state in light of the coronavirus pandemic. Another fact: In April 2021 he retired and started social work at PAMI.

More information? In May 2022, she became a registered T1 self-employed worker and declared that she had a gross income of $15,000 in 2024. This figure coincides with the moment she acquired a majority stake in Real Central SRL, before the company had significantly increased its income.

On the other hand, they confirm that Luciano Pantano will until today be a single G shareholder, allowing him to bill up to 40 million pesos annually and would have remained so until September. Bank debts are just over 2 million pesos. “Clearly and in common sense, I would not put him in a position where he, as a partner in the firm, would face being the owner of such a property,” they noted in their writing.

“It is necessary to remember that it will be so Not very crediblewho are owners of a limited liability company I started with a capital of 300,000 pesosBut since May of last year there has been an increase in this capital due to… The amount is 58,000,000 pounds. Who among them contributed capital?Where will the money come from so we can do this? How was it possible, even with such an increase in capital (which, in dollar terms, as of May 2024, amounted to an approximate figure of US$60,000) that they could acquire such a property whose value must exceed that number by millions? “, complainants ask.

They add: “Unusual Disproportionality between tax data and declared income By the owners of the company and the high economic value of the allegedly acquired property located on the property, constitute a relevant indicator worth investigating, in order to determine the source of the funds obtained, the true ownership of the assets and the possibility of concealment maneuvers or interference of persons.

“Alleged front men”

“In other words, the potential community use Screen for third party goodsAllow us to infer the probability that a crime has been committed Money laundering By concealing and disguising the origin of goods of high economic value.

“The basic information provided allows us to say that Messrs. Pantano and Conte would have acted in this manner Front men or namesakesUsing the legal entity Real Central SRL as a shell company, for the sole purpose of concealing the identity of the real owner of the property and the contributed capital. “The interference of persons and the use of shell corporate structures to simulate business operations are typical of money laundering maneuvers, as our courts have recognized.”

“Indeed, jurisprudence has indicated that creating a fictitious legal transaction through sham buyers – presenting a real transaction that is actually false – constitutes a crime.” An unambiguous indicator of washing activityThe complaint asserts that it seeks to conceal the illicit source of assets by concealing the true beneficiary.
