Argentina advances Devoto prison closure, transfers inmates to Marcos Paz

Argentina's federal government formalized the transfer of prisoners from Devoto prison to Marcos Paz, implementing a 2018 Nación-Ciudad agreement. A unified command was created to coordinate the move, signaling progress on a long-delayed policy. The closure of the high-profile Buenos Aires facility marks a notable shift in federal-local penal coordination, though operational timelines remain uncertain.
