Since the 25th of April, the day in which the face recognition system for the search for fugitives was launched in Capital Federal, 72 people were put at the disposal of justice but only 13 of them were detained. Among the fugitives who were brought before the judges–there are about 46000 people wanted across the country–there are some that are for robbery, for gender violence, extortion, injuries, qualified robbery, drug trafficking, attempted homicide and rape, among Other crimes.
