In the city of Villa Regina, Río Negro, Argentina, a 41-year-old man will be held in preventive detention for four months. He is accused of unlawfully depriving his partner and their young daughter of their liberty and threatening to kill them. According to the prosecution, the man locked the victims in a bedroom and threatened them with a pair of scissors and then with an iron. The woman managed to hand her phone to the attacker, allowing her and her child to escape. The prosecution requested the four-month detention to ensure the victim can go through the legal process without fear. They believe that if the suspect remains at large, he might try to approach the victim again. The man faces charges of 'aggravated unlawful deprivation of liberty' and 'aggravated threats with a weapon'. The judge upheld the prosecution's request and ordered the suspect's continued detention.
