They claim that for days a car and a motorcycle without license plates have been following them and have also been wandering around their homes. They are also calling for the withdrawal of the police of the province of Buenos Aires.
The family of Lautaro Morellothe 18-year-old boy who disappeared a week ago with a friend at Florencio Varela’s party in Buenos Aires and on Thursday found half-calcined and with signs of death from mechanical suffocation on the side of a highway under construction in Guernica, reported”threats“, he demanded that a national force investigate and that the file be transferred to “federal jurisdiction”.
“They made me a video call in which they were recording me when I left Lautaro’s house last night and I was followed by a black car and a motorcycle. This morning the same car and the same large-engined motorbike, without a licence, they stopped at my daughter’s house“, said the lawyer Carlos Diéguez, who was next to the young man’s relatives at the door of the prosecutor’s office a few minutes before noon.
The lawyer added that it was alleged that the car could have been a “Honda or a Toyota Corolla” and that the motorcyclist was “a man with a backpack”.
“It’s not for me, it’s for the family. Rare vehicles are passing by and an aunt who works in the force as an officer and has nothing to do with anything, they are intimidating her, threatening her,” said Diéguez, who announced he had will present the relative complaint.
Meanwhile, the lawyer has asked that the Police of the province of Buenos Aires be withdrawn from the investigation because “there are some scoundrels who they color the uniform blue and which is credited in the file”.
“That’s why we ask that a national force take the lead, be it the Argentine Federal Police, the Gendarmerie or the Naval Prefecture,” he said.
According to the lawyer, Lautaro “unfortunately found himself in a place where he shouldn’t be” and clarified that “this is the beginning of a thorough investigation“.
“When the vehicle was on fire, there was a white Amarok (Volkswagen) and a gray Peugeot supporting it on the side of Route 53. Likewise, a Buenos Aires Police patrol car was circulating at low speed. We ask for location of mobile ones, a see if they were related to the fact I was giving it some kind of support under the circumstances, to the people so far investigated,” he explained.
For his part, another family member asked, in a press conference held at the door of the prosecutor’s office together with the lawyer, that the case be transferred to “federal jurisdiction”, and he insisted that the provincial police be removedwhile Miriam, Lautaro’s grandmother, criticized the work of the prosecutor Mariana Dongiovanni.
“The Public Prosecutor’s Office was not where the car was, it was not where the searches were carried out or where the body was found, it treated us badly and never called us yesterday, Monday or at the weekend. The Public Prosecutor’s Office she complained about everything, haughty, what the prosecutor told us we didn’t need,” she said.
According to sources, the representative of the Public Prosecutor will investigate in the next few hours for “murder” Cristian Centurión, son of a commissioner – who is a cadet of the force – and his cousin, named Maximiliano Centurión, as alleged perpetrators.
