Vega family seeks justice and points to further suspects in White murder
More than a month after Santiago Vega's murder and following the pre-trial detention order for Joaquín Larraburu—the sole detainee so far—the victim's father, Marcelo Vega, spoke publicly again. According to ingenierowhite.com, the statements were made on radio LU2.
"We believe there are more people involved and we are working to ensure they also face justice," Marcelo Vega said. He explained that during the first week, grief prevented them from speaking publicly, but as time passed information began to arrive and witness testimonies reinforced that conviction. "We believe there is plenty of material to bring charges against the other people," he argued.
Regarding available evidence, the father pointed out that recordings from the bar's cameras, both municipal and private, could provide further details. He noted that people are still giving statements at the prosecutor's office and at the Ingeniero White police station, and that witness statements would be concluding between this week and next.
Marcelo Vega also described the impact of the crime on the family nucleus. "We miss him more and more and we are facing a reality we never wanted to be in. It is hard to sleep, concentrate and start each day," he said. Despite the pain, he stressed the family's commitment to continue demanding justice: "As a family we will continue in this fight." He also thanked the support received from residents of Ingeniero White and Bahía Blanca, emphasising that "the affection is very great and it allows you to find strength from where there is none."
