He left home and has been missing for about a year.

An absolute mystery. There is no trace. Nothing is known about Cesar Mariano Carqueo (75 years old) in November 2024. He went out at nap time for his daily walk and never showed up again.. ”Yes, dear, I’m going for a walk, and I’ll be back in a while. It’s 4 o’clock. duckling“He left this note for his wife Ofelia, who went to lie down.

Carqueo, a native of Neuquén and Mapuche but who has lived in La Pampa since the mid-90s, is retired, lives with his wife and has four children.

In General Acha, most people know Patito because he is called Carcueo because of his love of water and his hobby of swimming. ”It’s hard to think about a third party, that someone did something to you.…If that were the case, nothing would come out even if it came out, right? Acha is a quiet, rustic town and the people are nice. I can’t forgive the fact that my grandfather was swallowed up by the earth in a town where nothing happened. ”

Cesar said that for a while his father he had early stages of senile dementiaBut “he received medication and proper care and lived an independent life,” said his 43-year-old son, who led the search “in the face of the most absolute loneliness.”

Cesar, the owner of May 25 restaurant in Buenos Aires province, questions the indifference of the state and the judiciary.

“They abandoned me, the search was inadequate and inefficient.” And they had to change prosecutors due to incompetence. His name is Juan Bautista Benitez, and Paula Dasher was in charge of this case from the beginning,” her son said. He drives from Buenos Aires to La Pampa every week. And he faces the search for his father almost alone, “with family members and, where possible, friendly police officers and firefighters.”

“Will the earth swallow him up?” those around Kalukeo ask in bewilderment. After lunch that Sunday, November 10th,My mother went to take a nap, and my father went for a walk as usual.. He left a handwritten message on the table to ease people’s worries. That meant I was paying close attention to every detail in case my mom woke up before her nap. ”

man’s last record These are images from several cameras located at different locations on General Acha, where he has been observed to be “outside the route he took every day. “He got lost and something led him down a different path.”.

Only two people have come forward to say they saw him walking down the country road known as Route 9, and the sign has since disappeared.

The Government of La Pampa, through the Undersecretary of Human Rights of the Ministry of Social Development and Human Rights, We are offering a $4 million reward to anyone who provides true and definitive data. To locate the resident of General Acha, who was 74 years old at the time of his disappearance.

Cesar says that although his strength sometimes wanes, he perseveres and has lived a nightmarish 12 months. “My life changed forever… With these words from an old man, I finally understood in the blink of an eye that life is unfair, that you don’t always get what you deserve (good or bad). We often find ourselves in completely unknown and painful places and situations. We can remain powerless and helpless before the world. ”

Cesar says his family remembers that Sunday, November 10th. A search for the man began at 7 p.m., after which he filed a complaint. at the police station, which was then run by David Rinaldi. Learning about it on the same day, Cesar left the restaurant on May 25th and drove to General Acha’s place.

“Then this journey began and the path of exploration began.” As lonely as you are confused and misguidedin the complete absence of the state, with no real search protocols, no tools in place, and no trained personnel. The same nation that is supposed to protect us discriminates against us, Choose who protects and who doesn’t.he is acting with a sense of selective absence,” he says, biting back his anger.

There has been a lot of anger, confusion, and helplessness built up over the last 12 months of unanswered questions. “Not only did we feel hopeless in the face of our father’s disappearance; A war of egos between organizations that should have cooperated. And we started a protocol to search for people (police and firefighters) from scratch. “My father’s life was in urgent need, but I was met with a bureaucratic and inhumane response,” Cesar says with catharsis.

When talking about laziness and bureaucracy, César goes into detail, but not without painful and tearful passages. “There was no thoroughly organized operation. I asked for more tracking dogs. They only brought two, but they didn’t believe it was necessary. I asked them to start searching earlier each day, but they didn’t believe it was necessary. I asked for more people and more search tools… They didn’t believe they needed it either.”

”During that time, my father may be lost in the mountains, without water or food, and with limited time left. “I’m convinced that every decision they didn’t make, every decision they missed, could have been the difference between life and death,” he laments.

in turned aroundFor the families of the victims, former prosecutor Juan Bautista Mendez, who is currently in charge of the case, also collapses: “Nobody knew.” He doesn’t know what to do and is constantly contradicting the police. And it shows an embarrassing lack of professionalism. He never authorized an actual investigation, never had the necessary personnel, and never took advantage of the powers the law gave him for these cases. He completely isolated me and my family. “By his inaction, he completely violated our rights.”.

Without the resources or stamina for a professional search operation, Cesar and his family decided to optimize their energies and invest in their own journey.

“Hold your heart in your hands, We started looking for a house. His children, along with neighbors and two police officers, organized themselves without tools, proper clothing, or experience. With absolute certainty that if we don’t do it, no one will. “The authorities made excuses, but it was the common people who went out into the mountains, walked, shouted his name a thousand times and never gave up,” he claims.

“I haven’t given up on this search yet. my father can’t be missed anymoreBecause wherever he is, he has a place to rest, and we, his family, have the right to truth, a dignified farewell, and peace of mind. ” Sewage pond on the outskirts of Ami And that may be one of the last possibilities. “It’s a bit difficult to access, so we’re going to need some expert searchers.”

The Kalukeo people miss their old Patito and look forward to his kindness and joy. “He’s…he’s a good, present, generous father and that’s why he deserves the best from us. My father always worked hard to make sure we didn’t lack anything. Thanks to my knowledge of electricity, gas, painting, and plumbing. He understood everything and was always on the job. “He was always cheerful, smiling, and a warm person. He never made a bad face, never got angry with anyone, or got into a fight.”
