Insaurralde's Ex-Brother-in-Law Processed in Public Works Overpricing Case

Víctor Mariano Donadio, the former brother-in-law of Martín Insaurralde, is under judicial scrutiny in a case involving alleged overpricing in public works. Donadio is being investigated for his alleged role as a straw man in the enrichment case of the former mayor of Lomas de Zamora, and he has been processed and embargoed for 20 billion pesos.

The charges stem from the construction of a route that, according to reports, was destroyed just months after its inauguration. The project was allegedly carried out with overpricing of approximately 50%. Donadio's company, Doio S.A., is central to this investigation, as it was involved in the acquisition of land for Insaurralde's mansion in Fincas de San Vicente, where the former mayor lived with Jesica Cirio.

Federal Judge Luis Armella has prohibited Donadio from leaving the country at the request of prosecutor Sergio Mola. The investigation aims to determine if Insaurralde's wealth was financed through the redirection of municipal public works and if Doio S.A. facilitated these financial maneuvers. Prosecutors Mola and Diego Velasco have highlighted connections between Insaurralde and companies that supplied services to the municipality, as well as the links between these firms and luxury apartments where Insaurralde resided with Jésica Cirio.

Further complicating the case are investigations into a transfer signed in 2006 by Carolina Álvarez, Insaurralde's first wife, involving the company Doio. This transfer was later assigned in 2011 to SASAXA LIBERO SA, a company controlled by Insaurralde through individuals within his family circle. The property in question is Insaurralde's house in the Fincas de San Vicente country club. Doio S.A. had acted as a contractor for both the Buenos Aires provincial government and the municipality of Lomas de Zamora during Insaurralde's tenure as mayor, with his signature appearing on the adjudication of most of these projects.
