A Chilean partner of Cerimedo and an advisor to Minister Arrau are alleged to have financed a group responsible for spreading false information in support of the “Rechazo” (Rejection) campaign during the recent constitutional referendum. The reporting originates from CIPER Chile, an investigative journalism outlet. Details surrounding the funding and the extent of the disinformation campaign are currently under investigation. This revelation raises concerns about illicit financial influence in the political process. The “Rechazo” campaign ultimately prevailed in the September 2022 referendum, rejecting the proposed new constitution. The individuals involved have not yet publicly commented on the allegations. Further investigation is expected to reveal the full scope of the funding and its impact on the referendum’s outcome.
