New tensions on Chile’s right over evidence linking Cerimedo associate to Rejection campaign

Fresh information connecting an associate of Argentine consultant Fernando Cerimedo to the financing of a Rejection organization has opened another fracture on Chile’s right.

The UDI has denied links to Cerimedo, while the opposition is pressing for an investigation into the consultant’s possible influence on electoral processes. The dispute has placed the consultant’s name back at the center of political controversy.

The report says the controversy emerged as new background connected Cerimedo’s associate with funding for an organization linked to the Rejection campaign. The supplied account does not detail the nature of the alleged financing or establish the extent of Cerimedo’s own involvement.
