Overview
- The Federal Court in Goya commissioned the age-progression, which was produced by the Police Federal’s Criminal Individualization Division using Loan’s last photo and images of close relatives.
- Per forensic specialists, the projection is a hypothesis closer to artistic approximation than scientific certainty and does not account for illness, injury, surgeries, or extreme environmental exposure.
- The updated image will be disseminated through Interpol Argentina and national mechanisms including Alerta Sofía, ALERT.AR, and SIFEBU for mass distribution.
- Investigators noted that roughly 18 months after the disappearance there may be some stability in the child’s facial features despite potential appearance changes.
- The court asked the national Security Ministry to evaluate raising the reward after the family called the current five-million-peso offer insufficient, with no decision announced.
