The Special Prosecutor Team (EFE) investigating the disappearance and alleged femicide of Cecilia Strzyzowski confirmed today that it requested preventive detention for the seven detainees in the case. In a press conference, prosecutors Jorge Cáceres Olivera, Jorge Gómez and Nelia Velázquez ordered to charge César Sena, partner of the victim, with the crime of “triple-aggravated homicide by the link and premeditated contest of two or more people in a context of gender violence (femicide).” In addition, the parents of the young man, Emerenciano Sena and Marcela Acuña, who were going to participate in the elections in the province of Chaco, are accused of “aggravated homicide by the collaboration of two or more people.” Meanwhile, Gustavo Obregón and his wife Fabiana González, along with landlord Gustavo Melgarejo and Griselda Reinoso were charged with “aggravated concealment.” The request for preventive detention, according to the investigators, will become final if no party to the case appeals or opposes. Prosecutors will then request elevation to trial, which will be by jury. In addition, from the Judicial Branch of Chaco, prosecutors provided details of the case. In principle, as detailed, they believe that the crime occurred in a temporary window that goes between 12.13 and 13.01 on Friday, June 2, about three hours after Cecilia, partner of César Sena, entered the family home at 1460 Santa María de Oro Street, in Resistencia. Cecilia entered that house at 9.16 and did not leave under her own power. She thought she was going to travel to Usuhaia and said goodbye to her family, telling them she was afraid to travel by plane. His last search was how to assemble the suitcase, what to take, where to buy chocolate in Buenos Aires and where to drink the best coffee. She not only believed in that story of the trip, but she was excited. But the tickets were never bought,” he said Gómez.Al continuing the story, the prosecutor commented: “At 18 that same day the members of the Sena family left with bags of waste in a very suspicious attitude. Then, in the family’s field there was a burning and later human remains were found, there and in the Tragadero River.” We are working so that there is a conviction through trial by jury, a sentence that can lead to life imprisonment, “added Gómez.In addition, he warned that “we have accredited all the course of Cecilia that day, and there are many elements to confirm preventive detention. ”
