DAFI Report Finds Inconsistencies in Manuel Adorni’s Finances

The technical finding allows prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita to prepare a formal patrimonial justification request that could lead to a court summons if Adorni’s explanations do not convince investigators.

Overview

  • On Friday the federal prosecution received a technical report from the Dirección General de Asesoramiento Económico y Financiero en las Investigaciones (DAFI) that flags unexplained gaps in the evolution of Manuel Adorni’s and his partner’s declared assets.
  • The DAFI study is technical and does not give a single net shortfall number but identifies specific entries that lack documentary backing or that changed explanation across declarations.
  • Prosecutors have already incorporated responses from crypto platforms and found roughly US$100,000 of linked digital-asset movements that investigators say must be reconciled with Adorni’s account of prior Bitcoin gains.
  • The court record includes items that investigators count as evidence of high spending and liabilities, including reported expenses above US$408,000, debts near US$335,000 and heavy credit-card charges in 2025, and those figures are part of what the fiscalía will ask Adorni to explain.
  • Pollicita will use the upcoming winter judicial recess to frame a formal requerimiento de justificación patrimonial and, if Adorni’s replies are judged insufficient when courts reopen in early August, the fiscalía may ask Judge Ariel Lijo to summon him for an indagatoria; a separate inquiry continues into who paid for a private flight to Punta del Este.
