Pepín shall not be arrested until his request for political asylum is answered
Interpol Uruguay received a red alert for the arrest of former Macrist aide Fabián “Pepín” Rodríguez Simón but his arrest will have to wait until his request for political asylum is answered, it was reported.
Rodríguez Simón, in Montevideo as an Argentine deputy to the Mercosur Parliament (Parlasur), is sought for his alleged involvement in coercing businessmen Cristóbal López and Fabián DeSousa that it was in their best interest to sell their stake in the Indalo media group to associates of former Buenos Aires Mayor and later President Mauricio Macri because of the legal consequences it would bring them not to comply. In other words, he is wanted for alleged association to commit a crime.
