Cristina Kirchner has made a new legal appeal to the Federal Chamber of Cassation, requesting the reinstatement of her electronic ankle bracelet and the removal of visitation restrictions imposed after a meeting with nine economists at her home. This meeting occurred in her apartment where she is currently serving house arrest due to a corruption conviction related to the Vialidad case. Kirchner justified the meeting and added a request for unrestricted access to the terrace of her building located in the Monserrat neighborhood, which further seeks to ease her confinement conditions.

Her defense attorney, Carlos Beraldi, submitted a detailed 32-page document to the court, aiming to eliminate the electronic monitoring device required under the sentence mandated by the Federal Oral Court 2 (TOF 2). The push for freedom from restrictions comes amid accusations of corruption stemming from her time in office, which has led to an evolving legal landscape that continues to capture public attention. Kirchner's various requests are viewed within the context of her political journey and the ongoing scrutiny she faces.

The case has profound implications not only for Kirchner's personal freedom but also for Argentine politics as it reflects on the judiciary's role in political affairs. As former President and current Vice President, Kirchner remains a polarizing figure, and her legal battles are emblematic of broader issues surrounding corruption, accountability, and the power dynamics within Argentina's political landscape. This latest move could influence public perceptions and the political environment as she navigates her current legal hurdles alongside her positions in government.
