Argentine Senator Paoltroni shuts firms, blames Gov. Insfrán for financial asphyxiation

National senator Francisco Paoltroni announced the closure of his companies after 25 years, citing hundreds of bounced checks and million-dollar debts. He alleges a scheme of state persecution, seizures, and police blockades orchestrated by Gildo Insfrán, governor of Formosa. The claim is an accusation by a political figure; the extent of state involvement is unverified.
