The case of the murder of Uruguayan businessman Gonzalo Aguiar (46) continues to weave a web of deceit, fraud and mystery two days after his death.
From what
Clarín
learned , the legal wife and children of the deceased are in Canada and have the borders closed due to the scam case of the medical cannabis production company
Boreal
.
None of them were able to travel after the crime committed by Romina Camejo (26) at dawn on Monday in Punta del Este, but now they are trying to rescue the assets left by the owner of "La Maison" through a law firm, according to what they highlighted. local media.
In addition, people close to Aguiar are trying to gather material to support his innocence.
What was spread this Wednesday is that Roxana Guadalupe Marroquín Donan - Aguiar's "legal" wife, of Salvadoran origin - claimed the Lamborghini that the Maldonado Police seized.
The same one that until Tuesday was parked at the house where the crime occurred, in Mar Chiquita and Mar del Coral, and of which
Clarín
took photographs.
Now, this vehicle valued at at least $300,000 is being held in storage for a customs violation.
It is the one that Aguiar's Canadian family strives to recover from a distance.

None of them were able to travel to Uruguay because they are also involved in the alleged fraud case involving Gonzalo Aguiar and his time at the

company , where part of the Canadian investment group was headed by John Joseph Pollesel.

In 2019, Aguiar brought the investment from Canada and inaugurated it in Salto (Uruguay) during the time of the pandemic.
It all ended in the embezzlement of $27 million and a fraud complaint that began in 2023 and continues to the present day.
Pollesel's legal representative stated in the complaint that
Aguiar and his wife Roxana Donan
convinced their client to invest that money in a cannabis business in Uruguay that turned out to be "an enormous fraud, through which Aguiar turned no less than 10 million dollars."

Although at the time of his death, Aguiar was being investigated by the Economic Crimes Prosecutor's Office, sources in the area declared this afternoon to
Clarín
that Boreal's case is being transferred to the Money Laundering Prosecutor's Office.
In the last few hours, Uruguayan journalist Marcelo Umpierrez released information that he also confirmed to
Clarín
: people close to Aguiar, including ex-partners and friends,
have assets in custody
that belong to the deceased and have been collecting documentation to support their defense with a lawyer they are looking for, since they consider him completely innocent.
These people would be trying to turn the other side, investigating and obtaining elements and fiscal material (the fiscal folder within the investigation) so that the primary ruling regarding the crime can be reversed.

These people from the environment explained to the journalist what they consider happened on the night of the crime: none of them believe that Aguiar arrived violently at the house where Camejo and the baby were.
What's more, they add that the man's purpose was to pick up clothes to continue on his way with the woman who was waiting for him in the car, who was his partner.
What was resolved on Tuesday is that Romina Camejo abide by limiting measures imposed by the Uruguayan justice system: she will not be able to leave her home in Montevideo for 150 days, nor will she be able to associate with direct witnesses of the crime, nor have key documentation such as the passport.
The investigation continues to determine whether or not she acted in self-defense.
