Federal Judge Norberto Oyarbide.
Judge Norberto Oyarbide said today that his decision to close the wiretapping investigation stance putting Buenos Aires City Mayor Mauricio Macri closer to being tried has been «poorly interpreted.»
The judge yesterday put an end to the investigation putting Macri a step away from being taken to a public hearing.
Oyarbide came on stage today in response to what Macri said yesterday: «The wiretap case is an invention of this government,» he stressed.
Oyarbide added there is “strong court backing» which in effect, «guarantees» his decision to close the probe.
“There is heavy jurisprudence backing my decision,” Oyarbide said to the press this morning.
