Overview
- Ángel García Saavedra, 52, faced a simple sexual abuse charge after video showed him touching a 37-year-old fan’s crotch during Sergio Dalma’s February concert at Arena Maipú.
- In late May the guard negotiated an economic agreement with the victim that the Fiscalía de Delitos Sexuales classified as a solución de conflicto, enabling his return to Spain.
- Prosecutor Virginia Rumbo formally requested dismissal at an early August hearing before Judge Gabriel Bragagnolo, who granted sobreseimiento with defense consent.
- The complainant reported ongoing psychological trauma and has declined to reopen the case or pursue further legal action.
- Human rights advocates warn that applying a solución de conflicto in sexual abuse allegations may undermine victim protection and public accountability.
