From the WCA Forum;
A lot of people have thought something has been wrong for a while. Thanks to Daniel Sheppard and the IAC for investigating.
When you watch the videos back, this explains a lot.

Fellow members of our community,
After examining evidence presented by various WCA competitiors, and examining evidence independently gathered by the IAC, we have determined that Sebastián Pino Castillo manipulated WCA scrambles and gained an unfair advantage in WCA competition. The WCA will take the following actions:
1. All results for events that utilize WCA scrambling for 2009CAST02 for events where 2009CAST02 was acting WCA delegate will be removed.
2. 2009CAST02 will be ineligible to participate in WCA events for two years, and will be eligible to participate again on June 1, 2013.
3. 2009CAST02 WCA delegate status will be revoked.
Mr. Pino has been cooperative with this process, and the WCA finds no reason to doubt the authenticity of records for anyone other than
himself. Instituto Nacional 2011 will still be held on June 11, 2011, and the WCA will be working with the organizer and other members of
the Chilean cubing community to ensure that the event is held to WCA standards.
Regards,
World Cube Association
