  • The security secretary of Lanús filed a criminal complaint regarding repeated graffiti with the slogan "Cristina Libre" and the signature "La Cámpora."
  • Lanús Mayor Julián Álvarez claims these acts of vandalism aim to damage the image of his administration and the organization he belongs to.
  • The complaint includes evidence of graffiti on homes, schools, and municipal projects, with accusations pointing towards individuals linked to former official Diego Kravetz.

Lanús Security Secretary Sebastián Castillo has filed a criminal complaint seeking an investigation into repeated instances of graffiti bearing the slogan "Cristina Libre" and signed by "La Cámpora." The vandalism has appeared in various locations across the municipality in the southern part of Gran Buenos Aires.

Lanús Mayor Julián Álvarez, a prominent figure in La Cámpora, stated that these acts of vandalism are being carried out in the name of his organization to harm the image of his administration and the group itself. He asserted that those who previously governed the city and did nothing are now attempting to deceive residents with such "dirty campaigns."

The complaint details that the graffiti, applied with aerosol paint, has appeared on the facades of private homes, schools, and even on municipal projects. The municipality has reportedly identified individuals connected to former official Diego Kravetz, who previously served as Lanús Security Secretary. Sources within La Cámpora suggest that Kravetz, who is reportedly considering a run for office next year, is behind the campaign, citing graffiti that includes his name and the slogan "Lanús Gobierno 2027."
