Overview
- Agostina Vega, 14, disappeared after taking a remis and being last seen on Saturday, May 23, and investigators say her phone signal was tracked near the suspect’s home for about three hours before it went offline.
- The sole detainee, Claudio Gabriel Barrelier, was formally imputed for aggravated unlawful deprivation of liberty and has been indagated while his defense denies the girl in the footage is Agostina.
- Authorities turned over security video, antenna‑geolocation logs and communications to the Fiscalía and are analyzing an anonymous message to the mother that said 'Tu hija está bien. Dormida. Quedate tranquila.'
- Police carried out renewed, larger allanamientos at the suspect’s address, seized phones and material, and removed three women from the residence for identification and questioning.
- Family members continue public protests and the Alerta Sofía alert was activated as prosecutors say they do not rule out other participants and continue peritajes, canine searches and digital forensics.
