Prosecutor requests extradition of BROU Pando robber detained in Argentina

Extradition requested for defendant charged with BROU Pando assault

The Pando Prosecutor's Office has submitted a formal extradition request to Argentine authorities for Inti Camilo Cuba Vignolo, 38, according to telenoche.com.uy. Cuba is one of four criminals who participated in the assault on the Banco República (BROU) branch located on Avenida General Artigas and Solís, in the city of Pando.

The robbery occurred on 24 August, on the eve of the holiday marking the Declaration of Independence. In just a few minutes, the four robbers withdrew nearly half a million dollars from the branch and escaped in a high-end vehicle.

Cuba was the only one of the four who acted with his face uncovered during the assault, which facilitated his early identification. After the robbery, he fled to Argentina, where he was detained sometime later.

The proceedings to bring about the extradition are at an advanced stage. The intention of the Argentine authorities is to transfer him to Uruguay without subjecting him to legal proceedings in that country, so that he can testify before the Uruguayan Prosecutor's Office and face the corresponding legal process.

Sources connected to the investigation told Telenoche that the proceedings could be resolved in a relatively short timeframe, although the case is being handled with discretion due to the danger attributed to the defendant.

Cuba has a criminal record for robbery and was also wanted for the homicide of a homeless person, which occurred in March 2026.

In relation to the assault on the BROU in Pando, other participants are already detained and charged. However, Paul Alexander Cosella Cabrera, 32, remains at large, who according to sources consulted by Telenoche would have a significant portion of the stolen money in his possession.
