Octavio Lister, the head of the Department for the Prevention of Corruption (Depreco) has removed assistant prosecutor Carmen Alardo PeOa from her job, allegedly because the lawyer questioned decisions and positions taken by Lister in the handling of the cases involving banks such as the folded commercial bank Baninter.
