Aldana
was missing for ten years
.
Her friends and neighbors from the Mendoza town of La Paz, on the border with San Luis, stopped seeing her in 2011. She was 14 years old at the time.
This Christmas, a Federal Police operation located her in Buenos Aires.
As
Clarín
learned
from sources in the investigation, the strongest hypothesis is that the girl
was handed over to a human trafficking network
and forced into prostitution.
His mother and stepfather were arrested in Mendoza and accused of being responsible for his disappearance.
According to sources in the case, Celeste Aldana Orozco Maturano is now 24 years old.
He is undergoing psychological treatment under the supervision of the Federal Justice.
His name was on the
Missing Children
and Interpol
wanted list
.
On July 8, 2011, his trail was lost.
At first, she was wanted by her relatives, by her friends from the Marcelino Blanco school and by her neighbors.
It was believed that he could have taken a bus to San Luis.
“There were some marches for his appearance.
His relatives created a Facebook page with his name in case someone could provide information, but the police versions said that Aldana had left with a boyfriend who worked in construction in San Luis, "according to the portal
Tiempo del Este
, which covers the news from La Paz.
In the hours before the New Year, National Gendarmerie personnel raided the house of Aldana's parents, located on San Martín Avenue in the municipality of La Paz.
There were the mother Mónica Maturano and the stepfather Alberto Orozco.
Both were
arrested
as
suspected of having handed over
to a network of trafficking
and referred to the provincial jail.
When Aldana disappeared, her mother said that she had left the house on Friday, July 8 in the afternoon, and that she had not returned.
“He told me that I had to go find information for a school job.
He asked my permission to leave and never came back, ”Maturano said.
The mother works in a nursing home and her partner, Orozco, is an employee of the Provincial Highway.
Although the man is not Aldana's biological father, he had recognized her as his daughter and given her his last name when she was a child.
As Aldana's testimonies and statement progress, details of her
captivity
will be
revealed
.
There was a commotion in the streets of La Paz on December 30, when the young woman's parents were arrested.
A relative of the teenager commented to the portal Tiempo del Este the surprise that her appearance caused: "We are very happy to know that Aldana is alive, but at the same time sad to think that her parents may have something to do with it."
