"The press room of the Casa Rosada [seat of the Argentine government and office of the president] was found [on Aug. 31] with the drawers of journalists' desks open and ransacked, with some belongings missing. The apparent theft of some daily food supplies stored at the site was also reported.

The apparent intrusion was discovered Monday morning when accredited journalists arrived to begin their work in the early hours of the day.

At that point, they found the door open and the lights on. Upon entering, they found storage areas showing clear signs that they had been forcibly searched.

The incident occurred amid an ongoing dispute over the restrictions imposed by the national government on the work of accredited journalists at the Casa Rosada. The restrictions include bans on moving through areas that allow journalists to carry out their work more effectively."
