Overview

• In Córdoba, a 36-year-old admitted abusing three close relatives in a juicio abreviado and received 12 years in prison after the case surfaced when his 14-year-old daughter disclosed the assaults.
• Prosecutors there documented conduct ranging from gravely degrading abuse to abuse with access carnal spanning roughly 2013 to 2024, and the man—an app-based driver—had been detained since March.
• In Buenos Aires province, Manuel Sebastián Velázquez, 50, who was sentenced to eight years for repeatedly raping his 13-year-old niece, fled after a September 20 detention order and was captured four days later in Ingeniero Maschwitz by DDI and Sub DDI officers before being transferred to a penitentiary.
• In Catamarca, a popular jury found a man guilty of continued gravely degrading sexual abuse aggravated by the familial tie, and Judge Miguel Lozano Gilyam imposed a 13-year prison term with preventive detention maintained and victim-protection measures ordered via Family and Health agencies.
• The Córdoba querella reported at least two new potential cases tied to the convicted offender that could prompt further charges, and some victims expressed dissatisfaction with what they view as lenient penalties.
