Sergio Schoklender, who headed the social housing program 'Sueños Compartidos' associated with the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo Foundation, testified in a public fraud trial claiming that the late Hebe de Bonafini diverted funds intended for housing projects for political purposes. He alleged that Bonafini used at least 200 million pesos over the past 15 years to promote Kirchnerist political agendas rather than for the intended construction of houses.

During his testimony, Schoklender emphasized that Bonafini was unable to refuse requests from the Kirchners, suggesting that her political affiliations influenced her management of the foundation's resources. He described the diversion of funds as a betrayal of trust and responsibility toward the community that relied on the housing program for assistance. The trial has garnered significant attention, particularly given the prestigious standing of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo in Argentine society.

Following Bonafini's death, she was removed from the list of defendants in the case, causing controversy regarding accountability and the legacy of her leadership within the foundation. Schoklender's statements have sparked renewed debates about the corruption and mismanagement of funds in social programs in Argentina, raising questions about the integrity of non-profit organizations that interface with governmental policies and public funding.
