The Public Prosecutor's Office of Santa Fe will charge the five detainees for the femicide of Sofía Delgado, the 20-year-old woman who was found dead on a rural road in the town of Ricardone. The indictment hearings will take place next week, although the date has not yet been confirmed.
According to the autopsy conducted on the victim's body at the Legal Medical Institute, the cause of death was likely mechanical asphyxia. The necropsy also revealed that the corpse was in an advanced state of decomposition and "tied up hand and foot," with samples preserved for anatomical and pathological examinations.
Sofía's mother, Claudina, expressed her wish that the responsible parties "rot in prison" and called for justice to act accordingly. After several raids and searches, Delgado's body was found wrapped in thermal insulation, and the detention of five people linked to the case was confirmed.
The first two detainees, a couple, were identified as Alejandro José Bevilacqua, 34, and Miranda Leguizamón, 29, arrested in Pergamino, province of Buenos Aires. Subsequently, two other men and a woman were apprehended, two of whom were also in a couple relationship, identified as E.M, N.P, and B.N.
Family, friends, and loved ones of Sofía said their goodbyes to her in a funeral home in San Lorenzo. The wake lasted until Sofía's remains were transferred to the Brisas de Paz cemetery on the outskirts of the city.
