The investigation into the crime of

Pablo Flores (37)

in La Matanza continues to advance and the arrest of a suspect with a criminal record opens a line that can lead to the final resolution of the case.

Anyway, the file still has some open fronts.

"No hypothesis is ruled out.

The crime was premeditated, thought, diagrammed, there is no doubt about that.

The detainee has a heavy record, when he was arrested he himself said that he had been imprisoned for 19 years for a murder. The weapon was seized, it could be the crime ",

sources of the investigation

detailed to

Clarín

.

The pistol in question is a .45, the same caliber with which Flores was shot, who was shot three times in the head and one in the stomach.

A detail: according to witnesses, they saw that it had

silver details

, in coincidence with the one kidnapped in the raid.

A clue: the experts recovered a projectile from the scene of the incident, so the ballistics expertise (could take a week) will shed light on that point of the investigation.

There were three raids carried out between Monday night and early Tuesday morning.

All with a common denominator: the addresses belong to the same family.

Until in the third point, in Virrey del Pino, where the bus driver's assassination occurred, the arrest

of 55-year-old Néstor Fabián Marone took place, with an important medical record.

A man arrested for the crime of the bus driver Pablo Flores, on line 218, in La Matanza.

Sources from the Buenos Aires Penitentiary Service (SPB) confirmed that he served a 5-year sentence for robbery, but anyway he himself gave more details at the time of his arrest: "I was imprisoned for 19 years for a homicide," he said.

During the operations, a Taurus 11.25 (or .45) pistol -the same caliber as the murder weapon-, another Bersa 380 and a 22 caliber Pasper revolver, served pods, ammunition, cell phones and other items of interest were seized.

There were two other arrests, but for the illegal possession of those weapons.

The operations were in charge of the Departmental Investigations Delegation (DDI) of La Matanza and were supervised by the prosecutor in the case, Federico Medone, of the Functional Unit of Instruction (UFI) Thematic of Homicides of that judicial department.

Crime by mistake or revenge?


The main hypothesis of the case is that it was a

"crime by mistake"

and investigators believe that at least two other people participated in it, although there could be a fourth accomplice.

Although no hypothesis is ruled out, it was confirmed that the audio that circulated, and that it gave account of a revenge for a link with a married woman that was addressed to the head driver of the unit that Flores was driving that night, had at least two years old and no connection to this case.

Pablo Flores (37), the bus operator on line 218 killed in Virrey del Pino, along with his partner Lorena (34) and their children.

The prosecution also does not rule out that the attack could be related to

an inmate union.

The incident occurred on Thursday, around 10 p.m., at a stop located in the roundabout of the San Javier neighborhood and Bacigaluppi street, Virrey del Pino, La Matanza.

Inmate 75 of the Almafuerte company was circulating through that place, led by Flores, when, according to the witness account, two men stopped the bus.

Both approached the driver's window from the left side of the unit and fired several shots, three of which hit the head and caused the driver to be killed on the spot, after which the unit ended up crashing into a tree on a small square.

After killing the driver - the father of two daughters - the murderers fled the scene in a white Peugeot 504 that was waiting in motion with a third accomplice at the wheel.

A witness recorded with his cell phone

the moments after the murder, where it was observed how the victim was after being attacked, whose images are already part of the evidence incorporated into the investigation.

The murder of Flores unleashed a protest during the early morning hours that first took place on Route 3 but later moved to the door of the 3rd South Police Station of Virrey del Pino, including some incidents.

Meanwhile, the homicide of the bus driver led to a stoppage of driver activities, which on Friday paralyzed the service of more than 40 bus lines.
