Argentina: Eight more victims of military dictatorship identified
Federal Judge Miguel Hugo Vaca Narvaja confirmed the identification of eight individuals disappeared during Argentina's last military dictatorship. The remains, consisting of four women and four men, were recovered from Loma del Torito within the La Calera Military Garrison, an area adjacent to the former La Perla clandestine detention center.
The identification was made possible through anthropological and genetic analysis conducted by the Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team (EAAF) and the Forensic Medicine Institute of the Córdoba Judiciary. The investigation utilized a 1979 aerial photograph to guide excavations, which began on September 16, 2025.
With this latest group, the total number of people identified in this specific search has reached 38. The newly identified individuals are Néstor Albino Acosta Ludueña, Pascual Delfín Ludueña Leyva, Claudio Norberto Nardini Lambir, Cecilia Alicia Pessina Libro de Ávila, Mónica Protti de Guillén, Mercedes del Valle Ramírez Agüero, María Luisa Salto Segovia, and Juan Carlos Soulier Guillén.
