LOAN CASE: new technological expertise seeks answers to the MYSTERY OF THE TRUCK
More than 7 months after the disappearance of Loan Danilo Peña in the Province of Corrientes, Justice once again focuses on the participation of former sailor Carlos Pérez and the former official of the town of 9 de Julio, María Victoria Caillava, as the main actors in the disappearance of the minor. For this, they plan to re-inspect the vehicles that were the subject of the investigation and that were at the town police station for several days until work with dogs detected the “presence” of the minor and led to the quick arrest of the couple.
From the complaint, headed by lawyer Juan Pablo Gallego, they assured The Uncovering that They are asking that new tests be carried out on the vehicles, especially on Carlos Pérez’s Ford Ranger truck, which is the one the couple used on the day of the disappearance.. In that sense, the investigation verified that after leaving lunch with that truck they returned hours later and stayed in the field until early morning. Then they returned to 9 de Julio, where a witness testified that they washed the truck. The next day and after an agreement with former commissioner Walter Maciel, they left her at the town police station to take a trip in Caillava’s car.

Now, Judge Pozzer Penzo would endorse new expertise that will include completely disassembling the nose of Carlos Pérez’s Ford Ranger truck to be able to carry out different technological tests in search of key clues. The expert José Mazzei assured that “the investigation is permanently focused on finding evidence that can become solid evidence” and explained that “state-of-the-art technology is used, even with brands that were never used in the country that could be decisive in clarifying the case.” ”. In addition, the expert explained that work will be done on both the truck and the car to “carry out technological expertise in search of traces that may link to Loan or the place of his disappearance.”
The hypotheses by which they retrace the steps of Carlos Pérez and María Victoria Caillava have to do with the analysis of the psychological profiles of the two defendants. and after several testimonies that investigators have been analyzing in recent weeks. Along these lines, the profile of the former sailor was of primary importance for re-working on his movements on the day of Loan’s disappearance. The expert José Mazzei also pointed out that Loan’s loot had no traces of blood and “although this could rule out an accident, every detail must continue to be analyzed because each piece of information contributes to closing a set of evidence.”
This analysis by the investigators once again puts on the table the discussion of whether Loan was the victim of an accident and then everyone conspired to make the body disappear. This hypothesis conflicts with the main cover of the case and for which there are, so far, seven defendants accused of theft and concealment. Based on this, the complainants maintain the hope of finding the minor alive since they did not find remains in any operation in the area of the disappearance nor did they find traces of blood that would support the tragic hypothesis at the scene.
At the same time, investigators are delving into the latest statements of Macarena Peña and Camila Núñez in search of contradictions with their previous testimonies and with the other people who participated in the June 13 lunch at the El Algarrobal area. In this way, A prompt decision is also expected on the situation of Laudelina’s daughterwho was accused by Loan’s parents as one of the main suspects of planning the disappearance. Until then, there will remain only seven people charged with the theft and concealment. Antonio Benítez, Daniel Ramírez, Laudelina Peña, Carlos Pérez, Victoria Caillava and Walter Maciel, with preventive detention in different federal prisons and Mónica Millapi with house arrest in Neuquén.
