The former first lady, who has lived in Spain since last year, should have handed over all the contents of her mobile phone but only sent certified transcripts of some messages from her mobile phone to prosecutor Ramiro González with information related to the complaint.
The newspaper La Nación explained that prosecutor Ramiro González promoted a cooperation agreement with the Spanish justice system so that the former first lady could hand over, last week, the data contained on her phone.
La Nación, another Argentine newspaper, assures that those around former President Alberto Fernández (2015-2023) have relativized the weight of these conversations as evidence in the case. The conversations include some dialogues between the couple that are related to the alleged violence that Yáñez experienced with Fernández, father of her son Francisco.
“You slapped me and left my face boiling”
“You made me deny something to a judge and you asked me to help you,” says the former first lady. “You raise it as a fight but I was going to the guest house because you slapped me and left my face boiling,” he added in one of the messages provided, according to Clarín.
“I also know what you are saying about me from behind,” Fabiola reproached Alberto Fernández, at another time. Later, she would publicly imply that the former president was going to talk about his alleged alcohol addiction problems as an excuse to defend himself in the case, the newspaper quotes.
Yáñez, 43, denounced the former president, 65, after the Argentine Justice, in an investigation into alleged influence peddling of the former head of state, found conversations and images on the president’s secretary’s cell phone that could indicate the commission of the crime of “minor injuries in the context of gender violence” against the former partner of the Peronist politician.
After the complaint, the prosecutor charged Fernández with serious injuries doubly aggravated due to the relationship and for occurring in a context of gender violence and coercive threats to the detriment of Yáñez.
«An asymmetric and unequal relationship of power»
In his ruling, González stated that Yáñez “suffered a relationship characterized by harassment, psychological harassment and physical attacks in a context of gender and domestic violence”, based “on an asymmetric and unequal relationship of power that has developed throughout the time, which was increased exponentially by the election of Fernández as president”, in 2019, and “the exercise of the position”, until last December.
Federal judge Julián Ercolini prohibited Fernández from leaving Argentina and ordered him not to approach or contact his ex-partner in any way.
