Autopsy Rules Out Violent Death in Formentera Case as Companion Is Released

Investigators await lab results to establish the cause of Luisa Asteggiano’s death.

Overview

  • Luisa Asteggiano, 45, was found dead Sunday in her Es Pujols apartment on Formentera.
  • A Guardia Civil statement citing preliminary autopsy findings said the death was not caused by a violent event.
  • Her companion, 51-year-old Ivan Sauna, was detained on suspicion of homicide and released after the judicial review.
  • Authorities had initially logged the case as a presumed gender-based killing, a classification now set aside pending full forensic results.
  • Early reports of stab wounds were later clarified as unrelated to this case after confusion with a separate stabbing in Es Pujols the same day.
