Argentina: Former leader Cristina Fernandez has assets frozen

A judge in Buenos Aires has frozen the assets of former Argentine President, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.  

Miss Fernandez has been accused of making fraudulent foreign currency transactions last year in the final months of her government.  

She has denied the allegations and accused the centre-right government of Mauricio Macri of plotting against her.  

Some of her closest aides are being investigated for alleged mishandling of public funds.
