Carlos Wagner
Carlos Wagner is a prominent Argentine businessman and former president of the Argentine Construction Chamber (CAC). He has been implicated in the 'Cuadernos de las Coimas' scandal, a major corruption case involving kickbacks in public works during the Kirchner administration. As one of the 31 defendants who have cooperated with prosecutors in exchange for reduced sentences, Wagner has provided crucial testimonies regarding the corrupt practices within the Argentine construction sector. His legal battles continue as he seeks to contest the legitimacy of the charges against him, arguing that his initial confession was made under duress.
