- The Chilean Internal Revenue Service (SII) filed a criminal complaint against a family clan for tax evasion and use of false invoices, causing a fiscal loss of over $4.7 billion CLP.
- The group, involved in wholesale agricultural sales, committed these offenses between 2022 and 2025, using 146 false invoices across 10 companies to fraudulently increase VAT credits.
- The SII had previously filed a similar complaint against this group in 2023 in Maule for related crimes.
- The clan systematically relocated and replicated their fraudulent activities, using multiple companies and false documentation to simulate legitimate business operations.
