Matías Ozorio Returned to Argentina Under Guard in Florencio Varela Triple Femicide Case

Peru handed him over to Argentine authorities after an expedited extradition.

Overview

  • He arrived from Lima on an Argentine Air Force plane and was escorted by Interpol, the Federal Police and Buenos Aires provincial officers, landing at El Palomar near midnight.
  • Authorities plan to transfer him to the San Justo DDI for questioning by prosecutor Adrián Arribas on Friday, with the case under a secrecy order and Ozorio currently treated as a co-author.
  • Investigators will forensically open seized cellphones on Friday, including nine devices taken from a raid at his Parque Patricios residence, which they expect could yield key information.
  • Sources say his transfer moved quickly due to his Argentine nationality and the absence of pending cases in Peru, while the extradition of “Pequeño J” could take at least 60 days.
  • Detectives suspect Ozorio played a central role at the scene, possibly arriving in Víctor Sotacuro’s VW Fox with Florencia Ibáñez, and they say additional participants remain at large.
