Recently it became known that an attempt was made on the life of Argentine Vice President Cristina Kirchner.
However, the pistol the attacker tried to fire from misfired.
About this MIA “Russia Today” with reference to the TN TV channel.
The gun was loaded, but it didn’t work, – the television channel has this information.
From the details of the incident, it is known that the attacker was a man. He pointed a gun at Kirchner as she got out of her car, heading toward her home.
Soon the criminal was detained by the police. It turned out that a 35-year-old Brazilian citizen had attempted to kill the Argentine politician.
According to available information, the vice president was not injured as a result of the failed assassination attempt.
Let us remind you that Christina Kirchner is suspected of crimes related to corruption.
Against this background, Argentine society is divided into two camps: in one, representatives of those who do not believe in this, in the second, those who support the accusations.
Due to the tension that has arisen, people from the first camp have been gathering near the Kirchner house for more than a week. They come there to support the vice president.
By the way, according to local laws, if a politician is proven guilty of the acts he is accused of, he can be imprisoned for 12 years.
At least, this is the term requested by the prosecutor in the case of corruption in public works in the province of Santa Cruz in 2007-2015, when Kirchner served as president of the country.
