Overview
- Zamir Villaverde released a photo and a TikTok video asserting a relationship with presidential candidate Wolfgang Grozo that he says began in 2018.
- Villaverde’s chronology describes multiple private encounters, including a 2019 lunch, a 2020 meeting at Castillo Rospigliosi about Grozo’s promotion, and a 2021 visit to his home in La Molina.
- Wolfgang Grozo now concedes three or four meetings with Villaverde, characterizes them as circumstantial and held in public settings, and denies friendship, business ties, or campaign financing.
- Grozo says he distanced himself once legal questions about Villaverde emerged, arguing the contacts were not relevant to disclose earlier.
- Villaverde’s claims carry political weight given his past investigations and pretrial detention, intensifying scrutiny of Grozo’s transparency in the 2026 campaign.
