translated from Spanish: Chilean ship would have revealed position: claim that Macri government knew where the ARA San Juan was 20 days after its demise

Rear Admiral Luis Enrique López Mazzeo, former commander of training and enlistment of the Argentine Navy and one of those charged in the case for the sinking of the ARA San Juan, assured that the government of Mauricio Macri knew perfectly well the location of the submarine sinister at least since December 5, 2017, that is, 20 days after his disappearance.
“When you see all the documentation, you’re going to realize that we, when I had to sign the most painful message in my entire career that was the closure of the SAR case (by search and rescue) had detected the position of the submarine and that’s why we had coordinated with the British Navy on December 5 (2017) the order for a self-driving vehicle , because we knew it could be only in two reeds, which was what we could not verify with all the required international means,” the exoficial said in a statement— consigned by Infobae — to the Comodoro Rivadavia Chamber of Appeals to defend itself against the prosecution issued by a federal judge last January 31.
It should be mentioned that this is the first time that it is publicly recognized that the “contact” that through the sonar made by the Chilean ship “Cabo de Hornos” belonged to the ARA San Juan. The position was revealed by the scientific vessel belonging to the Chilean Navy but the information was minimized and then dismissed by the Argentine naval command and the government.
López Mazzeo’s statements sparked outrage among the relatives of the 44 deceased crew members and the complaining lawyers who represent them. Remember that the remains of the submarine ARA San Juan, disappeared with its crew since November 15, 2017, were located on November 17, 2018 on the seabed 800 meters deep in the South Atlantic. However, the latter announcement aroused suspicions at the time, not at the time because the ship Seabed Constructor– of the US company Ocean Infinity – left for its last day of searching the area that had been pointed out a year earlier by the Cape Horn ship and which the United Kingdom and US Navies had advised to explore in depth.
