On January 16, it will be four years since Raúl Díaz Cachón, the man who supposedly killed and dismembered his wife in Lanzarote, the young Paraguayan Romina Celeste Núñez Rodríguez, entered pre-trial detention. Raúl is accused of killing his wife in the early hours of New Year's Day 2019 in the house they shared in the El Palmeral Residential, in the tourist town of Costa Teguise.
The lawyer for Romina Celeste's family and president of the Zaballos Foundation for the Defense of Constitutional Rights, Emilia Zaballos, warned this Tuesday of the risk of Raúl fleeing once the four years allowed by law for a person in provisional prison pending trial have passed.
"The most we can find while waiting for the trial date is that he has to go to sign every day at the court. Having the coast of Morocco next door, imagine how long it will take to escape,” warns Zaballos. She considers “it an imprudence and a recklessness that this happens and shows that Justice exists, but the system is very decadent, leaves much to be desired and the family does not accept being told that the Court has a very complicated agenda."
