Argentina: Ex-officials weigh plea deals in fake-certificate corruption case

Prosecutor Marcelo Hidalgo has offered abbreviated trials to former Police Sub-Chief Gustavo Folli and nine others in the 'Megacausa Bomberos' case, involving a scheme of fake certificates for municipal permits. The defendants are considering confessing, which would result in sentences up to 6 years and 8 months. This marks a potential resolution in a significant corruption case, though the outcome depends on judicial approval.
