Sebastián López, the doorman of the historic Buenos Aires office that Enrique "Coti" Nosiglia has on Avenida Corrientes 1783, was stabbed this Monday morning by a man who, when he was arrested, said he had committed the attack "for political reasons.
"
The goalkeeper López is in serious condition, after having received
a stab wound to the neck by a man at 9:35 in the morning
, who injured him with a knife and produced other cuts on his arms when he tried to defend himself from the attack .
After stabbing him in downtown Buenos Aires, the assailant tried to run away to the "Callao" subway station, on Line B, at the intersection of Corrientes and Callao avenues, where he was caught by a policewoman from the City of Buenos
Aires .
It was a pedestrian who, seeing López injured, notified the police.
The agents of the 1 B Neighborhood Police Station
found a field knife at the scene of the incident
with which the attack on the manager of the Nosiglia office would have been committed.
The attack against the goalkeeper López was motivated "for political reasons," according to what the attacker told the City Police officers who caught him.
This statement must be made before the Justice to have legal value.
"
God told him that he had to kill the goalkeeper for being a politician
," the sources added.
So investigators are trying to determine if he has psychiatric problems.
"We understand that the boy who attacked him" has mental problems," a source close to Nosiglia told
Clarín
. He added: "There is an investigation underway and
we have to wait for what the courts say.
The truth is that we are all looking out for Sebastián, who is fighting for his life."
At first it was reported that López was a doorman at "a headquarters of the Radical Civic Union" (UCR),
without identifying that it is the historic office of "Coti" Nosiglia
.
It is that the entrance to his office is made from the street, where there is an imposing inscription with the letters of the party "UCR" and the address "1783" just above the glass door.
That place is the historic Nosiglia office, where Raúl Alfonsín's former Minister of the Interior has been for more than 40 years.
From there he actively participates in the internship of the Boca Juniors club and sponsors radical leaders such as Senator Martín Lousteau and Deputy
Emiliano Yacobitti
, Vice Chancellor of the University of Buenos Aires (UBA).
The injured man, identified as Lucas Sebastián López, about 46 years old,
has been an employee of Nosiglia for a little less than a year.
After
the attack, López was taken to the Ramos Mejía Hospital by an ambulance from the Emergency Medical Care System (SAME).
According to the sources of the case, he had
serious injuries to his neck, chest, face and both arms.
He was operated on at the Ramos Mejía Hospital and
remains hospitalized in serious condition.
"He came out of surgery stable, with stable vital signs, but he has to spend two days in intensive care to see how he evolves," sources told
Clarín
.
As reported by the
Télam
agency , the National Criminal and Correctional Court 21 is involved in the investigation, in charge of
Judge Marcos Fernández
, who initiated proceedings for "
investigation of illicit
" and entrusted the expert reports to the Criminal Unit of the City Police .
