Everything about An Bal Ibarra totally explained
Aníbal Ibarra (born
March 1,
1958) is an
Argentine lawyer and
politician from
Lomas de Zamora, a district located in the southern region of
Gran Buenos Aires. He worked as a prosecutor in the

Front for a Country in Solidarity (FrePaSo).
Ibarra became first a councilman. In 2000 he was elected mayor of the
Autonomous City of
Buenos Aires in the first round, beating
Domingo Cavallo, former Economy Minister of the country. In 2003, he was re-elected
mayor, winning the second round of the
run-off election against the center-right businessman
Mauricio Macri. He was supported by newly elected President
Néstor Kirchner.
On
December 30,
2004, the
República Cromagnon nightclub fire killed 194 people and raised a wave of accusations against political officials of the city. Ibarra was accused of tolerating or ignoring a lack of safety checks, of conducting the rescue operations improperly, and other charges. On
November 14,
2005 an
impeachment jury formed by a commission of the Buenos Aires Legislature suspended him for four months. He accused the opposition of manipulating the families of República Cromagnon's victims in order to ruin his career, and upon being notified of the suspension, he announced didn't resign but await for the investigation to be concluded. In the meantime, the Executive Branch of Buenos Aires was presided over by vice-mayor
Jorge Telerman.
On
March 7,
2006, the impeachment jury commission ruled the destitution of Ibarra as mayor of Buenos Aires. Of the 15 members of the commission, 10 voted for Ibarra's destitution, 4 against, and one abstained. The accusers had additionally asked for a 10-year ban from public office duties, but the members of the commission only asked for 6 years at most, and finally didn't decide on any sort of ban.
In the City elections of
June 2,
2007, Ibarra's list for the City Legislature gained second place and he and four other members of his coalition - the
Popular Progressive Front - were elected for the term starting
December 10,
2007, in support of President Kirchner's unsuccessful mayoral candidate,
Daniel Filmus.
Ibarra's sister,
Vilma Ibarra, is a national deputy and former
