South American judicial and detention developments

Overview

Judicial proceedings and detention rulings continue to unfold across several South American nations.

In Argentina, legal developments include a hearing for Jazmín Salazar regarding the death of professor Domingo Bravo, where prosecutors are seeking to extend her detention. In a separate case, a judge rejected a release request for Matías Marín, who remains in custody for the femicide of Gemma Álvarez. Other ongoing investigations include a micro-trafficking probe in Rafaela and a homicide investigation involving a doctor in La Rioja. Recent sentencing developments in Argentina include a 10-year sentence for the homicide of Federico Toledo, a 22-year sentence for the sexual abuse of a 71-year-old woman, and a 35-year sentence for a businessman in Jujuy for crimes against minors. Additionally, six individuals face 60 days of preventive detention following a 100-million-peso robbery at an estancia in Entre Ríos.

In Paraguay, the Supreme Court upheld the detention of Gianina García Troche, the former partner of alleged drug lord Sebastián Marset, ruling that her confinement in a maximum-security facility for suspected money laundering is legal.

In Chile, legal developments continue regarding a kidnapping in Temuco involving Itan Mairon Olave Díaz and Walter Alejandro Díaz Manquehual. Recent actions also include the formalization of a woman for attempted homicide in La Serena, a 35-year sentence for a cryptocurrency fraudster, and the preventive detention of a man following a femicide in Laja.
