The news of the arrest of Alejandro Astesiano, after returning to Uruguay from a trip with the president and his sons, surprised Lacaille Pou.
The head of the personal security of the president of Uruguay, Luis Alberto Lacaille Pou, was arrested yesterday Monday at the presidential residence, accused of falsifying documents.
The news of the arrest of Alejandro Astesiano, after returning to Uruguay from a trip with the president and his sons, surprised Lacaille Pou.
“I am as surprised as you are,” the Uruguayan president said at a press conference in Montevideo. “I’ve been sick,” she stated emphatically.
Under the microscope of prosecutor Gabriela Fossati are allegations that Astesiano sold fake Uruguayan passports to Russians.
Uruguay’s president has denied reports that his personal security chief had a bad criminal record. On Monday afternoon, some reports said that Astesiano had previously been of concern to authorities for fraud, embezzlement and theft.
