The investigation advanced with the incorporation of expert reports, witness statements, and filmic records that allowed the reconstruction of the sequence of events. The judicial resolution also ordered a lien of $110,004,700 on the assets of the accused and dismissed relatives and associates of the victim who had been detained initially, while five other police officers who participated in the operation continue to be investigated. The forensic report determined that the man died as a result of the impact of multiple metal ammunition that caused extremely serious injuries to the chest and abdomen, within the framework of a shot fired at close range, which generated a hemorrhage that could not be contained.
Buenos Aires, January 10 (NA) -- Justice ordered the preventive detention of Officer Darián Gastón Miño, a member of the City Police, for the death of Juan Gabriel González, the 45-year-old neighbor who was shot during an operation carried out in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Villa Lugano.
The incident occurred in the Villa 20 settlement, where officers from the City Police responded to a complaint of a alleged brawl, which generated a brutal confrontation between the uniformed officers and neighbors. The painter descended from his vehicle to defend his son during the conflict, as learned by the Noticias Argentinas Agency.
Three weeks after González's death and with complaints from various organizations against the security forces, the national judge in Criminal and Correctional Matters, Hugo Decaría, charged the officer with the crime of aggravated homicide due to the abuse of his security function.
According to what was reconstructed in the case, González was seriously wounded by a shot fired at close range and was transferred to a hospital, where he died hours later.
