by Two days after the disappearance of Federico Saihueque Cuevas, 25 years old, who entered the sea by kayak in Claromecó and nothing else was heard from him, the Prefecture found an unmanned boat 30 kilometers out into the ocean on Tuesday. The man who rented him the boat confirmed that it is the same one that he had given to the young man.
“The Municipality of Tres Arroyos from the area of the Security Secretariat informs the community that the CASA C-212 aircraft of the Prefecture that participated in the search from today to morning, detected 19 nautical miles an unmanned kayak“says the official statement.
“Communal Police, Volunteer Firefighters and the Prefecture continue working at the site in coordination with the Tres Arroyos Security Secretariat,” the official text concludes.
According to the complaint by parade investigation, the boy has a slim physical build, 1.80 meters tallwhite complexion and short dark brown hair.
He was wearing black shorts and a blue and black T-shirt with a print in white letters, the spokespersons added. She was also carrying a backpack.
From the commune it was indicated that this morning the search was carried out for “water and land, on the coast of Claromecó and covering the entire jurisdiction from the Cristiano Muerto stream to the Quequén River.”
“On the other hand, the Argentine Naval Prefecture continues the aquatic search with the Río Paraguay coast guard, a light boat and a jet ski,” they added, indicating that as the hours pass, an aircraft specialized in the search for objects will arrive at the site. .
The spokespersons consulted also indicated that the young man “would have been seen on Sunday about 5,000 meters out to sea in a straight line off the Dunamar slope after 7 p.m.”
In that sense, it was reported that “when invited to return to the coast he stated feel good“and added that “so far there is no news about their parade.”
For her part, Sandra Saiueque, the boy’s cousin, told Télam this Tuesday that “they were working with a coast guard, they took out the area where they are going to prioritize the search and we are waiting.”
“Federico was accompanied early Sunday and in the afternoon he decided to rent a kayak, apparently he headed for the sea, they warned him to get out but he said he was calm, fine, he would leave in a moment and from then on we don’t know anything more,” he added. .
The woman who lives in Tres Arroyos said that “he has a business, he is a hairdresser and on Sunday at 8 he left for Claromecó.”
“His parents, along with a brother and his wife, are in Claromecó in permanent contact with the security forces, who have been there since the minute the complaint was made,” he said.
In communication with TN, the mayor of Tres Arroyos, Pablo Gárate, reported that the missing young man did not know how to swim and that he probably had an ordinary vest that would only serve to float. He also added that the north wind could have been a determining factor in his boat entering the sea.
The authorities have already tracked the young man’s movements through cameras and witness accounts. The last news we had about him was through some publications he made on the social network Instagram and from a lifeguard who saw him before he entered the sea, to whom he told that he was training and would soon leave.
