According to the Télam news agency, the day before a person called 911 (Emergencies) from the city of La Plata, in the province of Buenos Aires, and left an intimidating message to the former president, after which Judge María Eugenia Capuchetti ordered to reinforce the protection of the also head of the Senate.

The minister specified that the investigations began immediately and assured that any event of this type cannot be minimized, especially after an individual, identified as Fernando Sabag, tried to shoot the deputy president in the vicinity of his home in this capital.

For us, any fact, no matter how small it may seem, is important. For this reason, the Police quickly intervened and attempts are being made to reach those responsible, he said.

On the 1st of this month, Sabag, a 35-year-old Brazilian national, pointed a gun at the former president’s head as he greeted people gathered outside his apartment in the Recoleta neighborhood.

Although he pulled the trigger, the gun, which contained five bullets, did not fire.

On Sunday night, the 4th, officers from the Antiterrorist Investigation Unit arrested her girlfriend, Brenda Uliarte, after she was detected in surveillance camera images located near the home of the former head of state.

According to Télam and the newspaper Página 12, after analyzing a cell phone belonging to Uliarte, the investigators determined that both tried to carry out a first attack on August 27, when Fernández spoke before thousands of citizens gathered in front of her apartment.

Both media indicated that sources close to the investigations detailed that there were other attempts to attack the vice president, which were aborted, and at this time they are working to define the role of the couple in these events and the probable involvement of other people.
