Overview
- Police detained three suspects in early-morning raids, including a local pastor linked to the Impacto church and two women tied to the victim’s home.
- A fourth suspect, the pastor’s brother, eluded the operations and is being sought under a national capture order.
- A witness described who carried out the attack and indicated the weapon’s possessor, steering investigators to treat the case as a premeditated settling of a debt.
- Authorities traced movements through cell-tower data and municipal CCTV, which guided urgent searches at the church, an adjacent residence, and a property in La Capilla.
- Investigators believe Viarnes was killed elsewhere and his body, found with six gunshot wounds in a Florencio Varela field, was later dumped at the site.
