Overview
- On October 30, the prosecutor Martín López Perrando and the victim’s family filed appeals against the sobreseimiento of Norberto Cristian Graf in the case tied to remains found in a Coghlan garden.
- The prosecutor argues concealment (encubrimiento) is an autonomous offense that should be assessed separately and is not prescribed, noting the principal author of the homicide has not been identified.
- An EAAF report concluded the original burial was entirely within the garden of Av. Congreso 3742, the property linked to Graf, supporting the theory of prolonged concealment.
- Construction workers testified Graf asked them to protect a tree near the later find, and the appeal cites his alleged nervousness and shifting explanations as signs he knew of the burial; Graf told investigators he did not remember the victim or classmates.
- Judge Alejandro Litvack had dismissed the case, reasoning Graf could not have diverted an investigation already underway, and the Criminal Chamber will now decide whether to reinstate the prosecution and allow it to advance, potentially to oral trial.
