Ministerio Público Fiscal

What Ministerio Público Fiscal does

The Ministerio Público Fiscal de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (MPF) is the constitutionally mandated autonomous public prosecutor's office serving the Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (CABA), Argentina. Its core function is the investigation and prosecution of criminal matters within CABA, organized through a network of specialized fiscalías covering distinct legal domains such as criminal, economic, and specialized offenses. The institution serves the residents of CABA as a whole, providing services free of charge and financed through the city's public budget rather than commercial revenue.

Operationally, the MPF runs a portfolio of citizen-facing services, including an online Denuncias complaint-filing portal, a turnos (appointments) system, and a Transparencia (transparency) portal, alongside an annual Memoria institucional report that formalizes accountability disclosures. Its most prominent technology initiative is PROMETEA, an AI-based system designed to assist with legal proceedings and document processing inside the prosecutor workflow. The institution also operates the MPF+Cerca community outreach program, extending prosecutorial engagement into neighborhoods. Headcount is reported in the 1,001–5,000 range.

On the international stage, the MPF — currently led by Prosecutor General Juan Bautista Mahiques — engages with bodies such as the International Association of Prosecutors (IAP), and the head of the office has pursued additional international mandates, signaling an outward-facing institutional posture alongside its domestic prosecution role.
