“We are going to file a complaint,” he confirmed, and reported that the “donations” were about 539 bags of cement and iron.
“They also destroyed the Municipality’s material equivalent to $60,000. The people who are working now will witness what (Orozco officials) did on purpose before they left,” she said with determination.

The women who denounced Janina Ortiz are working for Lo Presti
Janina Ortiz was charged for -allegedly- having forced a Las Heras employee to maintain intimate meetings with the then official Osvaldo Oyhenart, whom he had to record. In his statement before the prosecutor Gabriel Blanco The accused denied everything.
And before the press, as she has done on other occasions, the provincial deputy – who is suspended from her duties – He insisted on his innocence and assured that the cause is “politics and armed”.
“There were never any threats from me to sleep with someone,” she said.
An essential part of this case – due to simple coercive threats – are the complainants, the municipal employee who recorded the audio and another to whom Ortiz allegedly gave the order to do so.
Those two women involved in the case are now working again at the Municipality. “They were incorporated into the social area in February of this year, after they completed a license that they had requested due to the court case,” said Lo Presti.

The mayor, who claimed to have no relationship with them, stated that they returned to work at their request after completing a psychiatric license.
In the current administration there is also another person involved in the judicial cases but this time as a defendant. This is the lawyer Mauro Homanwho was head of Legal during Orozco’s time in the Municipality.
The former and current official is accused of public administration fraud along with the former mayor and others, in the cause of the ghost cooperatives whose main defendants are the former Undersecretary of Social Policies, Osvaldo Oyhenartand his son-in-law Juan Pablo Pandolfi.
Lo Presti assured that he keeps Homan among his trusted people because “the problem was centered on the certifications that were not done and not in the hiring process, which was why Homan and other officials were accused.”
He came to that conclusion – he says – thanks to the audit that the investigation by the Court of Accounts has already been carried out, although the Prosecutor’s Office of Juan Ticheli maintains charges of fraud.
Lo Presti recalled that from these analyzes it also emerged that “There is a debt owed by Oyhenart and Ortiz of $60 million to the Municipality. Today (on Wednesday) the Court’s notification arrived to the Municipality of Las Heras so that we can record that debt in our financial statements.”

On the other hand, the mayor stated that “The floating debt of the Municipality after Orozco’s management is 500 million pesos”.
And taking into account the state in which he found Las Heras, 1,500 workers got rid of. “The contract of 900 people was not renewed and 240 were added. In total there were 1,500 casualties, which represents 40% of the staff that the previous management had. There were 4,300 employees between permanent staff and service locations. In addition, I reduced 70% of employees and was left with 60“.
Also to cross Janina Ortiz’s previous statements – formulated in Séptimo Día -, Lo Presti said that she only implemented the digital file on March 4. “Ortiz said that there was an electronic signature and that was not the case. He lied because the electronic signature and the digital file as such were implemented this year. “It was a government action that must be valued and most municipalities have it.”
