Investigating the contentious encounter between Cristian Graf and a journalist, centered around the Diego Fernández Lima case.
In a dramatic turn of events, Cristian Graf, a former classmate of Diego Fernández Lima, has stepped forward to face justice in a case that has remained unsolved for 41 years. The identity of the victim, Diego Fernández Lima, has been a mystery since his disappearance.
Graf presented himself at the office of Martín López Perrando, the prosecutor handling the case, but did not respond to the accusation. He was reported to have pushed away a microphone when approached by journalists.
The breakthrough in the case came when the skeletal remains of Fernández Lima were found buried in the garden of the house that the Graf family lived in 1984, where Cristian Graf currently resides. The objects found with the remains, including a calculator watch, a blue tie, and a jean label with the UFO brand, alerted his family.
The genetic analysis conducted in the EAAF laboratory in Córdoba confirmed the compatibility between the remains and Bernabella Lima, Diego's mother. This certainty of identification put an end to decades of searching but opened the chapter of clarifying the crime.
The investigation aims to determine the authors of the crime involving Diego Fernández Lima and Cristian Graf. The prosecutor plans to take testimonial statements from the workers who found the remains and more former colleagues of the victim and the suspect.
A tense exchange between Cristian Graf and a journalist occurred at his residence on Congreso Avenue 3742 in the Coghlan neighborhood. The journalist, Mercedes Ninci from eltrece, asked Graf directly if he was involved in the murder of Diego Fernández Lima. The nature of their encounter was described as a "crossing," implying some tension or conflict, but specific details on how it escalated are not clearly detailed in the available sources.
Former classmates of the school contacted the prosecution after the discovery of the remains, noting that Graf was known by the nickname "Jirafa." The media reported that the investigation is ongoing.
