In the hours after the violent death of Romina Núñez, allegedly at the hands of her husband Raúl Díaz, as concluded by the investigation of the Civil Guard, the body of the young Paraguayan woman was practically devoured by the flames in a gas barbecue in the back of the couple's home in the El Palmeral residential area of Costa Teguise. During the reconstruction of the events that took place last Saturday, February 2, Raúl Díaz confessed that he was committing "a barbarity" with his wife's body.
According to the version of the Madrid engineer, after finding his wife dead in the bathroom, he took her to the lower floor where the barbecue was located. "He grabs her by the shoulders, only dragging her feet, he takes her down the stairs, stops on the landing and goes down to the living room, laying her down next to the stairs," reads the transcript of his statement that is in the summary to which LA PROVINCIA/DLP has had access.
However, the Civil Guard is conclusive in assuring that Raúl Díaz did not find Romina dead in the bathroom but that her death occurred "due to a violent episode." Thus, the analyzes have shown that there were splashes of human blood in the bathroom, "especially relevant dragging towards the door."
What is credible, at least part of his version, is the way in which he burned Romina's body starting on the morning of January 1. "That when he moves her in the living room also facing (to place her on top of the barbecue) he recognizes that he was doing a barbarity but he moved her carefully because she was his wife," he said during the reconstruction. In his statements, he indicates that he put the body on the barbecue inside the living room to later take it out in front of the doors of the laundry room to prevent his neighbors from seeing it.
After placing an old sheet on the clothesline to make sure they didn't see him, he turned on the barbecue, covering it with the lid, except for the legs that were left outside. "He turns on the barbecue and goes to the living room and stays smoking, drinking and consuming (cocaine)," reads the summary. In his statement, he states that he kept the barbecue on for eight to ten hours.
