The City Government of Buenos Aires, headed by current right-wing presidential candidate Mauricio Macri, denounced days ago through an article in Clarín that the National Government retained 30 Nagoya-5000 subway cars in Customs. However, according to enelsubte.com, an online daily specializing in issues affecting the Buenos Aires Subway, 24 of these cars are in a warehouse owned by the Clarín Media Group. The remainder were already at the city's Polvorínes Street subway workshop.
The city subway authority, SBASE, today admitted this was the case; but insisted on blaming the national government for their being hidden from service, claiming in a statement that "the cars are not hidden. None can be put into service if the national government does not sign the certificates."
The website enelsubte.com clarified, however, that "the National Customs Office does not have authority over any subway cars stored in Clarín or city warehouses. "
The website also reported that Southside Buenos Aires warehouse where the 24 subway cars were found, is being rented by the city government from the Clarín Group for US$1.5 million a year. The Clarín Group, the largest media conglomerate in Argentina, is a vocal supporter of Macri's ongoing presidential bid and a top recipient of padded city contracts under his tenure as mayor.

completely burying any and all negative news about them, whitewashing their actions, attacking all their opponents in every instance.
It's hard to believe a newspaper which has aided and abetted so many human rights criminals is still very much in business.

That video is wild. People wouldn't believe it if they didn't see it, as it's so completely insane.
There is no choice whatsoever but to pursue this situation until ever single aspect of it has been totally exposed. It looks hideous from here.
Forest444, please let us know anything you learn further about this. It should have repercussions severe enough to bring a lot of trouble down upon Macri and Clarin. Not a minute to lose at this stage of the game, is there? Wow.
