strong statements had to take care of the trains, but sold is a former Onabe official, accused by federal prosecutors of being the leader of a conspiracy that scrapped more than 600 cars
Justice qualified accused a former official of the National Property Management State (Onabe) for having mounted a desarmadero which would have broken up between 600 and 700 wagons and more than a mile of track.
In 2003, the government appointed lawyer Daniel Omar Pires as national coordinator for Security and Stewardship of the National Heritage Onabe.
Pires made this appointment as the head of safeguarding the assets of Onabe. But in reality, the designation of Pires in that office was like putting the fox to guard the henhouse.
three days ago, the federal prosecutor Morón Sebastian Basso asked a federal judge in that district, Jorge Rodriguez, have investigated Pires and 12 other defendants, holding members of a conspiracy aimed at disarming and sell trains and rail cars that were in Haedo beach loads and belonged to the state.
According to the prosecutor, was proved the existence of an organized group of people, led by Pires, who devoted himself to dismantling disused railway material was deposited at the site located between the former railway tracks and roads Sarmiento Rawson and Remedios de Escalada.
Basso As the prosecutor said in his opinion, "the cars and the tracks were sold to different companies, with knowledge of the illicit origin of the merchandise purchased, and there are even indications that these firms have exported parts ".
Pires served as security chief until Onabe on June 30, 2005, as contained in a note that the agency's executive director, Fernando Miguel Suarez, sent the Buenos Aires Ministry of Security, which had requested information on the accused officer.
One test that the prosecutor used to establish the charge against Pires was a memorandum of internal auditor's Internal Audit Unit Onabe.

On that note, it was reported: "During an inspection station in Remedios de Escalada, it was observed that courts were making cars and wagons. When asked to explain the charge of warehouse and workshop said that such work had been ordered by the Heritage Stewardship Coordinator and scrapped materials were transferred to the warehouse Liniers.
Then the manager showed the inspector two proofs signed by Pires, in authorizing the transfer of disarmed the tank wagons Liniers.
Onabe When auditors went to Liniers to check the pieces were there, the head tank said she never received materials from the dismantling of cars that were made in the rstación Remedies Escalada.
The research resulted in the indictment against Pires began in June 2008 from received an anonymous call Graciela Podesta, the National Security Onabe.
After listening to the anonymous informant, the officer filed a complaint with the Federal Court No. 2 of Morón, in order to investigate if the site loads Haedo beach wagons and rails are broken.
By then, the magistrate referred the complaint to the federal tax Basso, who felt that there was sufficient evidence to initiate an investigation.
After two years, in which accumulated data, evidence and material on the performance of Pires and the company formed to sell parts of wagons unarmed, prosecutor requested the investigations of Pires and her partner, who was listed as a board member of the firm Villa Alegranza SRL, which was responsible for the scrapping of cars on the beach Haedo load.
addition, the prosecutor seized documents proving that Pires made this move when he served as chief Onabe Security. Curiously, at that time, Pires took part in several raids against metal rails buying train several branches in the country.
The researchers' hypothesis holds that some of these companies were reported by Pires and, over the years, became clients of the firm that set up to sell Wagons disarmed.
