Overview
- Silva testified this week before prosecutor Fabricio Sidoti, denying the accusations and asserting her husband extorted her with intimate videos and psychological pressure.
- She continues under preventive detention at home with an electronic ankle monitor following Judge Claudio Daniel Gil’s August 8 order.
- Prosecutors formally charged her with aggravated unlawful deprivation of liberty in several alleged episodes, aggravated injuries, threats, and disobedience based on Lucas Giménez’s complaint.
- The investigation began with a July 12 report, Silva was detained on July 24, and forensic examinations and witness statements remain in progress.
- Her defense says the facts are atypical for the alleged crimes and will seek to rescind house arrest and obtain dismissal, as the file also notes a separate threat complaint from Giménez’s ex-partner.
