The directors are like to appear in court this week after a massive investigation by national tax agency Afip into some 180 companies for the alleged use of false invoices, Dow Jones News reported, citing sources. No one has yet been charged in the case.
The source also said Disco could have been on the receiving end of fake invoices and would, in that case, be innocent of tax evasion.
