Bodies of Three Missing Women Found in Buenos Aires After Alleged Narco Trap as Police Arrest Four

Officials attribute the trap to a narco cell linked to Villa 1-11-14, with a manhunt for a suspected Peruvian organizer.

Overview

  • Police exhumed the bodies of Brenda del Castillo, Morena Verri and Lara Morena Gutiérrez from a property in Florencio Varela after tracing CCTV and phone signals.
  • Authorities detained four suspects tied to the house and its cleanup, and they face aggravated homicide accusations as the probe proceeds under judicial secrecy.
  • Forensic teams estimate the victims were killed the night they disappeared, and autopsies and additional peritaje are underway to refine timelines and causes.
  • Investigators say the women voluntarily boarded a white Chevrolet Tracker at La Tablada believing they were headed to an event; the vehicle later appeared burned near the house.
  • Officials link the operation to a network based around Villa 1-11-14 and are pursuing higher‑level figures, including a Peruvian trafficker alleged to have ordered the attack; Governor Axel Kicillof publicly backed this line of inquiry.
