The food scandal that shakes the Ministry of Human Capital
After the portfolio led by Pettovello did not ask for an extension or the suspension of Casanello’s proposal to present a distribution plan for the stored products, the judge finally ordered one of the warehouses to be raided.
Between both warehouses, there are 6 thousand tons of food and infusions stored that the Government had refused to distribute until Thursday, when Pablo de la Torre, who served as Secretary of Children, Adolescence and Family, was fired from his position. After that fact, he assured that the products that were close to expiring would be distributed immediately by the Army.

In February, Grabois had filed a criminal complaint against Sandra Pettovello for failure to fulfill her duties as an official.
