Overview

  • Esteban Alejandro Suárez, 45, was found in the driver’s seat with a gunshot to the head and a pistol in his hand, while Florencia Revah, 32, was in the rear with three gunshot wounds.
  • Investigators’ main hypothesis is femicide followed by suicide, though they have not ruled out third-party involvement due to a rear-window bullet hole and cartridges placed on the hood.
  • Tickets found in the car show passages at Larena around 7:00 and Solís at 10:07, suggesting hours of driving and raising the possibility that Revah was killed elsewhere and transported.
  • Scene clues point to a potential attempt to burn the vehicle, with the fuel cap open and a rag inserted, and police seized three phones, documents and a Bersa handgun with a laser sight.
  • The UFI No. 6 in Mercedes, led by prosecutor Darío Schapaunic, ordered searches in El Talar de Pacheco and Nordelta and awaits autopsy, ballistics and toxicology results, noting Revah had prior gender-violence complaints in 2021 and 2023.
