Chaco Lawyer Who Defended Sena Clan Arrested Again on Suspected Cattle Theft

A rural-crime prosecutor ordered the late-night arrest after a producer's complaint, with the inquiry under seal.

Overview

  • Police detained Ricardo Ariel Osuna at his home in Resistencia just before midnight Friday and placed him in custody at Comisaría 11.
  • The order was issued by María Emilia Rudaz of the Rural and Environmental Investigation Prosecutor’s Office following a local producer’s complaint.
  • The operation was executed by the Dirección General de Seguridad Rural y Ambiental with support from the Departamento Rural Metropolitano and Investigaciones Complejas.
  • Sources said Osuna indicated he would cooperate with authorities and underwent a medical exam before being formally notified of his arrest.
  • In March, Osuna spent 41 days in custody in a similar case in La Leonesa, where investigators seized about 21 cattle and a Toyota registered to Emerenciano Sena and Marcela Acuña; the Sena family was convicted in November in the Cecilia Strzyzowski femicide.
