Protesters march for victims of streamed femicide
The Mercury
|September 29, 2025
THOUSANDS of protesters took to the streets of Buenos Aires at the weekend to demand justice for three young women whose torture and murders were live-streamed on social media, ina case that has shocked Argentina.
-
The victims’ relatives held a banner with their names - “Lara, Brenda, Morena” - and placards with their images, flanked by supporters as they marched to Parliament.
“It was a narco-feminicide!” “Our lives are not disposable!” read signs and banners as protesters banged on drums at the march, organised by a feminist group.
The bodies of Morena Verdi and Brenda del Castillo, cousins aged 20, and 15-year-old Lara Gutierrez were found buried Wednesday in the yard of a house in a southern suburb of Buenos Aires, five days after they went missing.
The crime, which investigators tied to drug gangs, was perpetrated live on Instagram and watched by 45 members of a private account, officials said.
