Vice Minister of Revenue is a partner of the owner of the company that sold facial protectors to Health for $ 750,000 | News from El Salvador

The official is not only a partner of the representative of the firm that sold facial protectors to Health for $ 750,000; they also shared an office.

In house number 7A at the end of Arturo Ambrogi street in the Escalón neighborhood, until November last year, it worked SYGM Asesores, which sold overpriced face shields to the Ministry of Health for $ 750,000, taking advantage of the emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The state of emergency allowed the Government to make direct purchases, an expedited modality (without bidding) that is within the Public Administration Procurement and Contracting Law (LACAP).

He is Rogelio Cabrera who according to documents from the Registry of Commerce, is a partner of the Deputy Minister of Income (Ministry of Finance). Cabrera sold 300,000 face shields to Salud for a cost of $ 750,000.

The legal representative of SYGM Asesores is Rogelio Cabrera, originally from the San Francisco canton of the San Simón municipality, Morazán. His work office as a public accountant has it in San Miguel, say those who know him.

Jorge Alberto Vásquez Turcios appears as a partner of Cabrera in the same company.

Same office, same partners

But in that same house 7-A, also until November 2019, the SCI Audit Tax Advisory company operated, of which the Deputy Minister of Revenue of the Ministry of Finance, José Alejandro Zelaya Villalobo, is a legal representative.

Thus, the Ministry of Health did a business of $ 750,000 with a company that lied to him regarding his address, since by April it was no longer working at the address printed on the purchase document.

However, SYGM Asesores and SCI Audit Tax Advisory not only shared offices but also Vice Minister Zelaya Villalobo and Rogelio Cabrera are partners, at least that is what the legal documents say, although sources from El Diario de Hoy, who know both the official and Cabrera, they affirm that the true owner of both companies is Zelaya Villalobo and that Cabrera is only a namesake.

CSI Audit Tax Advisory is the company of which the Deputy Minister of Revenue is the legal representative, but in which Rogelio Cabrera, representative of SYGM Asesores, is a partner, who sold him $ 750,000 in face shields to the Ministry of Health.

According to documents from the Commercial Registry, on June 21, 2016, Zelaya Villalobo and Cabrera partnered; the first contributed $ 75 and the second $ 25. Then, on August 11 of that same year, they registered the company in the National Registry Center.

However, on the SCI website (http://solucionescorporativasinte.blogspot.com/) Cabrera does not appear as a partner, but also the public accountant Álvaro Bladimir GB, who when consulted said that he had no business partnership with anyone, He works independently and was surprised that he appeared as a partner to the Deputy Minister.

Until yesterday afternoon, the name of Álvaro Bladimir continued on the website as a partner of Zelaya Villalobo.

Lend names?

In yesterday’s edition, El Diario de Hoy reported that both Rogelio Cabrera and Jorge Alberto Vásquez Turcios were employees of Deputy Minister Zelaya because on their social networks, both claimed to be managers in different areas of the official’s signature.

Sister of the vice minister aspires to be mayor of El Triunfo

Sara Elizabeth Zelaya Villalobo has run as a candidate for mayor of the municipality where she lives, El Triunfo, for the Nuevas Ideas party, which will hold internal elections on July 12. She is the older sister of the Deputy Minister of Revenue, José Alejandro Zelaya Villalobo, who was denounced yesterday for possible violations of the Government Ethics Law, due to his alleged relationship with the company that sold 300,000 face shields to the Ministry of Health, for $ 750,000.


However, yesterday it was possible to have access to the public documents in which Rogelio Cabrera’s business relationship with the Deputy Minister of Revenue in the SCI Audit Tax Advisory company, as well as the company SYGM Asesores (of which Cabrera is legal representative) According to documents) they shared the same office in a house where a legal advisory office now works, with no ties to Zelaya Villalobo y Cabrera, according to sources in this newspaper.

After yesterday’s publication, a person who claimed to be an aunt of Vásquez Turcios, stated that his nephew only lent the name (for the foundation of the company SYGM Asesores) because he is employed, as an accountant, by Deputy Minister Zelaya Villalobo.
