Former Argentine president

Fabiola Yáñez, the former First Lady of Argentina, has filed a lawsuit against her ex-husband, former President Alberto Fernández, accusing him of domestic violence, including physical and psychological abuse. Following her allegations, a judge has barred Fernández from leaving Argentina and contacting Yáñez, who now resides in Madrid with their two-year-old son. Fernández has vehemently denied the accusations, stating they are false and asserting he will provide evidence to prove his innocence in court. The allegations surfaced after incriminating materials were leaked to the media, linked to Fernández’s ongoing fraud investigation concerning embezzlement of public funds during his presidency. Yáñez had previously refrained from pursuing legal action, even after the reports emerged in June. This case adds a complex layer to Fernández's political and personal controversies as he navigates serious legal challenges.
