Dismembered businessman: questions about his mobile and the strange appearance of his SUV

The Land Rover driven by the victim was in possession of an alleged partner and has been surrendered to the Buenos Aires province Police. From his closest circle they have doubts about a murder due to a debt. Why were his remains dismembered, bagged and thrown into a suitcase?

FERNANDO PÉREZ ALGABA. | CEDOC/TELAM

The case investigating the brutal murder of Fernando Pérez Algaba (41), the Argentine trader who showed up dismembered in the Buenos Aires province city of Ingeniero Budge, is centred on reconstructing his last few hours. Who he communicated with, which places he visited and who he met with are some of the questions the detectives are trying to discover to know who killed him and why.

The financial trace is the main line of investigation followed by prosecutor Marcelo Domínguez, but not the only one. The amount of debt he had incurred and the virtually constant threats he received reinforce the theory of a settling of scores related to money. The striking thing is the mechanics of the crime. Not that he was executed by two gunshots as shown by the forensic report, but why his remains were dismembered, bagged and thrown into a suitcase which, oddly enough, contained four IDs.

If the intention was to make it difficult to identify the body, it is not clear why they did not search the red suitcase properly. Actually, everything would seem to indicate that they had another objective: to send a message. To whom?

A dismembered body in a suitcase points to the mafia. In fact, the most recent background is related to executions by transnational drug dealing organisations or crimes by the so-called Chinese mafia.
