Overview
- Investigators arrested one person on November 11 after tracing videos that showed a group assault on trans women in the Bosques de Palermo and obtained a judicial order to search multiple homes.
- The detained suspect faces a preliminary charge of "lesiones agravadas por haber sido cometidas por odio a la identidad de género," the discrimination unit of the city prosecutor’s office said.
- Prosecutors identified seven social‑media profiles linked to the case, two of which reportedly belong to minors, and police located seven associated domiciles in Buenos Aires Province.
- Authorities seized phones and other electronic devices during the raids; those items are awaiting forensic examination to tie specific people to the filmed attacks.
- Five victims were medically examined at the prosecutor’s office and found to have minor injuries, and prosecutors say other arrest orders remain in effect as the inquiry continues.
