Pablo Laurta Transferred to Córdoba and Held in Isolated Cell in Double Femicide Case

Prosecutors have ordered psychiatric testing to determine his criminal responsibility in the Córdoba case.

Overview

  • The suspect was moved overnight from Gualeguaychú in a high‑security, multi‑agency convoy and processed at Córdoba Police Headquarters before jail placement.
  • He is being held alone under constant camera monitoring at the Cruz del Eje penitentiary and was formally notified of double femicide charges by prosecutor Gerardo Reyes.
  • Judicial authorities ordered psychiatric and psychological evaluations to assess imputability, and an earlier assessment in Entre Ríos described him as lucid and aware.
  • He also faces a separate case in Entre Ríos with 120 days of preventive detention for the alleged homicide of driver Martín Sebastián Palacio, with DNA confirmation pending and searches for additional remains ongoing.
  • The five‑year‑old son recovered during his arrest is under protective care, and his allegation of having rescued the child from trafficking was dismissed for lack of evidence.
