Suspicion that the terminal was reset during the investigation
Judicial sources have reported that the mobile phone of the attacker of Argentina’s vice president, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, is said to have been blocked in federal police’s attempts to obtain information, which the “fundamental evidence” is believed to be in danger of getting lost. , as the Télam agency has learned.
The terminal that the attacker, Fernando Andrés Sabag Montiel, had with him the night he tried to shoot Fernández de Kirchner in the head is said to have been formatted so that justice could lose key evidence. According to local media, the message ‘factory reset phone’ appeared on the mobile screen.
For that reason, the Federal Police would have asked the security guard of the airport to investigate the device, because they have more modern software to access the information.
This inconvenience keeps the investigators on their toes, but the competent court – headed by María Eugenia Capuchetti – has expressed confidence that the custody chain has not been violated. In addition, the authorities have ruled out that the phone was remotely tampered with, as “it remained in airplane mode,” Télam collects.
