The victim was identified in the last hours as Maria Lujan Barrios through a DNA match with his mother who gave a positive result, judicial sources confirmed.

The remains of this young woman, for whose femicide there is a suspect in custodywere found in mid-June last, in such a state of decomposition that it prevented any type of recognition that was not through a study.
