Overview

• An autopsy by Dr. Alejandro Lima found cardiorespiratory arrest due to mechanical airway obstruction, consistent with hanging.
• Army and police sources state no other military personnel are linked to the case and that the death did not occur during service activities.
• The body was discovered hanging about 10 meters high in the tank’s “lung” at the unused ex-Batallón Logístico 3, which is now being sold.
• Miño was on special winter leave, under psychological care, and had suffered a romantic breakup hours before his death.
• Prosecutor Oscar Cañete has seized evidence and is gathering forensic reports and witness testimonies to determine whether the hanging was self-inflicted or a homicide.
