Last Thursday, the 18th, the Special Investigative Commission for the Tolhuin radar project officially began its operational functions in the session hall of the Tierra del Fuego Legislature. Under the chairmanship of legislator Pablo Villegas (MPF) and the secretaryship of Matías Lapadula (PG), the parliamentary body established its institutional rules, thoroughly analyzed the constitutional regulations that empower it to audit government actions, and established a rigorous technical and legal framework to arrive at the "historical truth" regarding the establishment of the companyLeoLabs Argentina SRL.

At the first meeting, the members of the Commission defined a working procedure: the body will meet regularly every Thursday at 2:00 p.m. The work will be carried out within an initial period of 90 business days , which may be formally extended if necessary for the success of the investigation.

Mechanisms for Absolute Transparency and Scope Notification

To ensure that the community and stakeholders closely follow every development, the Commission approved that all meetings be public and fully filmed . It was also determined that every testimony given before the full Commission be recorded in stenographic form , legally safeguarding the statements of those called.

As its first significant administrative step, the Commission formally notified both the Provincial Executive and Judicial branches of the Provincial government of the definitive commencement of its activities. This notification detailed the regulations, powers, and legal scope that the Provincial Constitution grants the Commission to demand documentation and compulsorily summon public officials, guaranteeing due process.

Two proposals to break the wall of silence

The central event of the opening day was the submission of two comprehensive research proposals that will define the initial evidentiary strategy. The technical specifications were presented independently by legislator Juan Carlos Pino (Justicialist Party bloc) and by Juan Carlos Parodi , President of the Malvinas War Veterans Center in Ushuaia .

Both roadmaps converge on a common goal, but they deploy a range of extremely complex requirements that seek to dismantle the administrative, corporate and infrastructure map built around the "El Relincho" ranch.

1. The technical specifications of the Legislature (PJ Bloc)

The proposal presented by legislator Juan Carlos Pino focuses on immediately auditing, within a peremptory period of ten (10) business days , the control mechanisms and essential state services provided to the firm:

2. The Geopolitical Request of the Ushuaia Ex-Combatants Center

For their part, the motion submitted by the Ushuaia War Veterans offers a thorough institutional audit aimed at identifying the "Starting Point" of the Provincial Executive's involvement with the company, conceiving this milestone as the essential starting point for reconstructing the thread of all subsequent proceedings. The document clarifies that they are not looking for "old papers," but rather the structural map and the chain of responsibility of all officials who participated in, coordinated, or validated the actions.

The text from the ex-combatants significantly increases the complexity of the investigation by proposing absolute requirements and expertise:

The institutional countdown

With the unification of these two complex sets of evidence, the Investigating Commission now has the files and the constitutional authority to summon the entire chain of command involved between 2019 and 2026. The proceedings, held every Thursday at 2:00 PM and protected by stenographic records and public video recordings, promise to become the most complex and decisive institutional forum of the year for provincial political power. Tierra del Fuego has begun reviewing its own archives in search of the truth regarding the sovereign violation that occurred.
