translated from Spanish: Lawyer for Facundo Castro’s mother: “An illicit association is covering this up”

Leandro Aparicio, one of the lawyers for Facundo Astudillo’s mother, the young man who was last seen on April 30 as he was on his way to Bahía Blanca, said this morning in dialogue with C5N that he has no doubt that the body they found last night was planted and that there is an illicit association that continues to operate to cover up the incident.” It’s a body that’s in a place that’s a salt flat, a saltwater wetland, face down, it’s not a deep place, no one can die or suicide that way, so that someone has to put it there,” the lawyer said, adding, “It’s the most inhospiit there can be, there’s nothing, there’s no one who has a field or a fifth there. , no one can walk around voluntarily.” Aparicio explained that the body is “shealatized”, because it is a place where the sea and the continent merge and when the low water is all salt, which leads the body to mummify, for this reason “there are no visible traces to say whether it is Facundo” or another person.
“The Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team, which has worked in many places, will intervene and will be able to determine how that body got there and what signs are relevant to the investigation,” he revealed, “There is an illicit association that continues to operate to cover up this, we do not doubt that, if that is the body of Facundo or someone else , didn’t voluntarily get there.” The lawyer trusts that the body was planted thanks to the media pressure exerted by Cristina Castro, the mother, and “put it with the determined purpose of removing it from a complicated context for the police situation”. In addition, he stated that “this appearance is a before and after in the search for Facundo, but that “the causes of the cover-up are clear.”
Finally, he concluded: “We have no doubt that there was a plan, the hypothesis of the police is not sustainable, we prove the enforced disappearance because the last force that sees it is the Police of the province of Buenos Aires, we do not have to prove what the motive was or where the body is, it is a disappearance and there is a force of the state that intervenes , the rest are cover-up plans for that disappearance.”
