A Mexican prosecutor's office will investigate

the death of the Argentine model

, who was found lifeless in the city of

, Mexico, on February 18, while the victim's family insisted that the main suspect is the one who

, who had already "escaped" from that country.

This was confirmed by the Attorney General of the State of Quintana Roo, Óscar Montes de Oca, to the lawyer of the Jalabert family, while the Special Committee on Feminicides and Gender Violence of Cancun will intervene in the investigation.

"The new news is that

. The case will be passed to the Special Table that takes this type of event and where the trained personnel are to analyze them," he told a press conference broadcast by the networks Betina Teuly, legal representative of the relatives of Agostina, the 31-year-old model found on February 18 with a belt around her neck in one of the bathrooms of the house, located in the Paseo del Real complex of the aforementioned Mexican town.

In this context, the lawyer targeted Agostina's partner,

, by assuring that the case was "

" and specified that the 31-year-old woman was

before her death.

Agostina had traveled to Mexico to continue her modeling career.

"This was a suicide simulation. There were signs of violence in the place. She was incommunicado,

. Both the victim and her partner had visible injuries. There was a table leg that was out and lying on the floor ,

..." Teuly said.

With these data, the lawyer questioned the actions of the Quintana Roo Prosecutor's Office, which did not arrest the alleged femicide, treated Agostina's death as a suicide from the beginning and handed over the woman's body, which was cremated a few

after his passing.

"The area was not cordoned off and the victim's body was not preserved. The protocols say that the scene and the corpse should be taken care of until the investigation is complete. There are many errors

. The perpetrator was left completely free The cell phones that the suspect took, all the information we could have had on the devices

, "continued the legal representative of the Jalabert family.

According to Teuly, the death of Agostina is still under investigation, although he specified that he still cannot demand the arrest of Reverter, a native of the city of Viedma, due to the legal provisions of Mexico.

"They are going to try to do what was not done from the beginning. Now an arrest warrant is not going to be issued. In Mexico, when there is a detainee, they must be caught in flagrante delicto. It was not done in flagrante. "He can detain. If all the elements of the investigation prove the fact,

If he does not appear at the hearing, an arrest warrant will be issued there," he said.

For their part, Agostina's partner

and the woman's family maintains that she hid despite the fact that there is no arrest warrant.

"We wanted him to give us an explanation of the last hours of Agos and we never succeeded. As he is from the same area of ​​ours in Argentina (they live in Carmen de Patagones), we heard some reports that would indicate that he is no longer in Mexico," revealed the model's uncle, Germán.

In turn, the man opined that he does not believe in the new position of the prosecution and pointed out that it is "unacceptable" to see this fact as suicide.

"We believe that they are setting up this situation because they are aware of all their initial mistakes. We want to see how they develop from now on. Then we will decide whether to initiate criminal proceedings against them or not. The autopsy says that she was tortured, that she was burned with

, that she was

. This was much more than a simple suicide. There are clear elements in the autopsy that indicate

. She had a non-consensual relationship," highlighted Germán.

In this sense, Edgardo, Agostina's father, criticized the work of the investigators, although he admitted that the new cover of the investigation gives him "a glimmer of hope" to arrest the culprit.

"We feel that the work that had to be done was not done. No protocol was followed. The prosecution failed to deliver the body when they should have preserved it to take more expert evidence. The first talk we had with the prosecutor told us that it seemed like a suicide after witnesses pointed out that they heard Agos saying that he was going to take his own life.

," he said.

In this regard, Edgardo ruled out the possibility that Agostina committed suicide and that she had no history of having a depressive picture.

"She was fine until this person came into her life. She was working there in Mexico and everything was perfect. She was not seen with a depressive picture, she was enjoying her life in Playa del Carmen. When he got involved, everything started to change" synthesized the father of the model.
