A series depicting the life of Iya MuranoAlso known as “The Poisoner of Montserrat,” it premiered on the Flow platform this Thursday.
After the figure of Iya, an emblematic and unforgettable figure of Argentine criminal history, once again attracted attention at the premiere of the national performance, her son Martín Murano harshly criticized the series about his mother, asserting: “That has nothing to do with the real story.”
“Although the Avant premiere was held in front of my house, I did not go to see it, much less watch it at home,” admitted the son of the “Montserrat poisoner.”
“I’m not taking part in anything. I’m just a spectator. I won’t go see it because it has nothing to do with the real story,” he warned. our morning (Miter), a series hosted by journalist Marcelo Bonelli.
In fact, he added indignantly: “In this series, Iya Murano has no children. Neither I as a person nor the character Martin Murano exists.”
Regarding the creation of Flo, he said: “This series is fiction. With all due respect, it’s like saying the sinking of the Titanic helped keep the ship safe.”
In that sense, Martín revealed that he is actively working on a documentary for Netflix, in which, according to him, the “true story” of his mother will be revealed. “It’s not just me speaking, it’s the people who lived through this event, from journalists to members of the judiciary,” he said of the production, which will premiere in 2026.
In fact, he predicted that the documentary would reveal new evidence about his mother’s alleged hidden crimes, saying, “In this documentary, you’ll see that there weren’t just three crimes. You’ll find out what happened to the money from the fraud and who else was involved.”
Martin Murano admitted in the same interview with Marcelo Bonelli that he never had a “traditional mother-son relationship” with Iya. In that sense, the poisoner’s son admitted, “I experienced her as a human being in my own home, but there was no emotional bond.”
He then surprised her by revealing that her mother had tried to kill her when she was a child. “When I was 10 years old, my mother tried to kill me with a cake filled with cyanide.”
“Even though etymologically, I don’t think of her as a mother. I think she is capable of much more than that. Iya had no limits,” he added.
Martín later said she was raised by another woman, whom she considered to be her biological mother. “Ignacia gave me love and I owe everything I am to her.”
Regarding the heritage of her last name, she explained: “The surname Murano is ambiguous. It reminds me of my father, the noblest man I know, but biologically he wasn’t. She’s not Iya Murano, she’s Iya from Murano.”
