A lawmaker from Salta, Argentina has resigned his position as a national deputy after going viral in a Zoom video that caught him fondling and sucking a woman’s boobs in a virtual committee meeting to discuss pensions, OYOGist.com has gathered.
Juan Emilio Ameri was attending a virtual session on pension funds when he put his hands around a lady that was sitting on his lap and fondled her boob, dragged her shirt lower, and started sucking.

“Aware of the responsibility that my position represents, I make available my resignation as a national deputy and I will continue working for my beloved province of Salta and for Argentina to stand up,” said Juan Ameri.
His resignation was accepted by the majority of the lower house.
