The federal judge of Lomas de Zamora Federico Villena denied the release of the flight attendant who is being held as the alleged author of a call warning of a bomb on an Aerolíneas Argentinas flight bound for Miamiwhose takeoff was delayed for more than seven hours, while the company appeared as a plaintiff in the case.
The magistrate considered that, if he was released, Daniel Carbone might jeopardize the investigation since it was detected that before being arrested she tried to delete the contents of the phone from which, with the chip changed, the threats had been made.
In any case, he opened an incident to evaluate the possibility of granting him house arrest.
Judicial sources reported that “it is proven in a provisional degree typical of the stage through which this process is going, that the defendant iAttempted to remotely reset the hijacked Iphone device in the file instruction and erase all its content and, in this way, probative elements of the utmost importance for the case, “said the judge, in line with what the prosecutor Sergio Mola had opined.
«The aforementioned would have been carried out through maneuvers through ‘Apple Support’, which, although they would not have achieved the intended purpose for reasons probably beyond the control of the accused, indeed, if they had taken place, they would have caused the loss of crucial elements for the discovery of the truth of the facts under investigation”, detailed the magistrate.
While, Aerolíneas Argentinas appeared as a complainant before the Federal Court of Lomas de Zamora, as confirmed by company sources.
The sources added that “in the first instance, the defendant is suspended without pay. Once the company becomes aware of the evidence in the file, it will define what other measures it will take with respect to the accused crew member.”
And they clarified that “we must respect the times of the process and wait for the progress of the investigation, because the presumption of innocence is involved until the guilt of the accused is determined. That is why you cannot take any action of this type until you have the decision of justice.
The woman, 47 years old and with 25 years of seniority in the company, who had refused to testify yesterday before Judge Villena, is housed in a cell in the offices of the Airport Security Police (PSA) in Ezeiza.
The situation of the flight attendant is very compromised
Judicial sources assured that the situation of women is “very compromised” and that, regardless of the fact that he can follow the process at his home, he will have to face various criminal and economic charges, due to the damages caused by his actions.
The sources warned that “there is sufficient evidence” once morest the woman who is accused of “aggravated coercion of the pilot” by “references to his family”, following having tried “to pass off the threat as a union intern.”
The stewardess was arrested upon arriving in the country on her last flight and she is accused of being the author of the call that both the captain on board received on his personal cell phone, as well as other members of the company.
The call put airport security on alert, which implemented an operation that delayed the flight’s departure and caused complications for the 270 passengers traveling on the aircraft.
In relation to the investigation carried out by Judge Villena, Aerolíneas sources indicated that “public intimidation and obstruction of public services (art. 211 and 194 of the Penal Code, respectively) they are feloniesTherefore, if the facts are verified, the company will penalize the person investigated in proportion to them.
He Sunday, May 21, Aerolíneas flight AR1304 had to be evacuated in its entirety when it was regarding to leave for the US city of Miami, with 270 passengers and 12 crew members at 07:35, when both the flight commander and ground personnel received a threat associated with the flight.
Finally, following corroborating that it was a false threat, the plane took off at 4:50 p.m., more than nine hours following schedule.
What did the bomb threat say on the flight to Miami?
According to sources linked to the investigation, the threat consisted of an audio that said: «Tell the captain that we planted three bombs on him in the Miami. Stop fucking with politics and check the plane because they are going to fly into a thousand pieces ».
the voice was distortedbut investigators were able to first establish that it was a woman and then identify the source of the communication, which led to the flight attendant’s arrest.
Justice investigates whether the woman would have maintained, until two months ago, a romantic relationship with a cabin crew member who was on the flight that he had to take off for Miami and would have used the threat to the commander and the plane to divert the real motive, which may be complicating his ex-partner’s life.
To this end, the sources indicated that, to support this line, he would have also sent messages to the pilot of the flight, in which he warned him that “he knew which school” “his daughters” went to.
Aerolíneas Argentinas suffered a loss of more than a million dollars between the evacuation operation of the passengers and what implied the rescheduling of the departure of the flight to Miami and the delays caused.
