Argentina Lawyer Calls for Arrest of Cryptocurrency Entrepreneur Linked to Libra Scandal
The Libra cryptocurrency scandal that has rocked Argentine politics entered a new phase this week after Argentine lawyer Gregorio Dalbon formally asked the international community to detain Hayden Davis. The request, which was submitted on Tuesday to Chief Prosecutor Eduardo Taiano and Judge María Servini, asks the International Criminal Police Organisation to issue a red notice for the detention and extradition of Davis from the United States.
Mr. Dalbon, who represented Cristina Fernandez, the former president of Argentina, in a corruption case, did not immediately respond to multiple requests for comment declassified, and Decrypt's request to Mr. Davis's lawyer went unanswered.
