The Panama Papers case against Macri, as you may have heard, was recently dropped as well (https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=es&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.eldestapeweb.com%2Fpanama-papers-la-camara-federal-cerro-la-causa-lavado-dinero-contra-macri-n31625).

This despite hard proof found by ICIJ journalists that his name is on at least 50 offshore accounts worth at least $55 million between them - all undeclared (another illegality in itself). He still has tax evasion charges pending - but even there, the courts are acting very "confused" despite the mountain of Panama Papers and other evidence.
