The suicide of Santiago García continues to generate a stir. Above all, in Godoy Cruz de Mendoza, the last team of the Uruguayan forward. The family’s lawyer, Gumer Pérez, gave a strong message in an interview with Radio Telam.
“The family has identified those who were harming him, but tests and evidences are needed. That is what the cell phone is for, which is like the black box of an airplane,” said the lawyer. And he asked that the “cause must be thoroughly investigated, to find out if there was any instigation or help or some peripheral element that led him to make that decision.”
In addition, he stressed: “It is absolutely false that Santiago did not want to see his daughter or that the girl’s mother would not let him see her. Due to the pandemic and the closing of borders, they could not travel. There was a good link between El Morro and his ex wife. He adored his daughter. “
“This situation is sad and hard. El ‘Morro’ had spoken with the mother on Monday for his birthday and had told her that on Friday he was in Uruguay to see his daughter. Something went through his head that made him make that terrible decision of taking his own life at the age of 30, with a 6-year-old daughter, “he said.
Pérez explained what he is trying to discover with this investigation: “He was on medication to cope with the state of depression. On top of that, he was locked up because he contracted coronavirus. We want an investigation into what led him to make that fatal decision. Today the cover is suicide. But expertises are being carried out to see how his last moments, his conversations, passed, to see if he was under any pressure. “
