Ex-Footballer Arrested for Alleged Murder of His 86-Year-Old Mother

A 56-year-old former regional footballer was detained after his 86-year-old mother was found dead at their home in Quequén, Argentina. She suffered a significant head injury, and a post-mortem will determine the exact cause of death. Investigators say the suspect, Jorge “Garda” Sánchez, was found intoxicated at the scene after reportedly ingesting pills. He received treatment in hospital and gave blood for toxicology tests before being charged with aggravated homicide. He has not made a statement to police. The family expressed deep shock over the tragedy. His brother described their mother as “the best mum” and vowed to honour her memory. Authorities are examining Sánchez’s mental state to understand what led to the alleged attack.
