In a statement released on Monday evening, the Ministry of Justice announced that it will audit "all requests made in the name of the reparations laws", in light of the various legal proceedings for fraudulent or improperly awarded compensation.
These compensations for human rights violations (detention, torture, exile, disappearance of a family member) under the dictatorship are provided for in several laws enacted during the 1990s and 2000s.
The Minister of Justice, Mariano Cuneo Libarona, specified that there are private suspicions about "more than 100 people", who each received an average of 150 thousand dollars, based on false documents or testimonies.
In 2021, 7,996 requests for compensation were filed by relatives of the disappeared and 14,400 by exiles, the minister said.
The minister added that he will put a team of auditors in the field to review about 25 thousand files.
The dictatorship of 1976-1983 caused about 30 thousand dead and disappeared, according to the assessment admitted in recent years by human rights organizations.
This assessment is openly contested by Milei, who evokes less than nine thousand victims and criticizes the "business" of human rights.
