Luciano Arruga

His remains were found on October 17, 2014. According to police evidence, the young man was buried as NN in the cementerio de la Chacarita after a car accident that caused his death. The family, together with social movements and human rights organizations, continues to support their hypothesis of institutional violence and seeking justice for Luciano.

The case has been presented by human rights organisations in Argentina as an emblematic example of enforced disappearance during democracy and organisations such as the Committee on the Rights of the Child of the United Nations, which in its report of 2010 requires the Argentine authorities "conclude a thorough and impartial investigation in conformity with the Convention on the Rights of All Persons from Enforced Disappearances." In February 2010, the family requested to classify the investigation as a case of forced disappearance which would pass the case to the federal courts, but the petition has so far been declined and the cause remains in Court No. 5 of La Matanza.

Luciano Arruga (born February 28, 1992-January 31, 2009) is an Argentine teenager who was missing since January 31, 2009, when he was intercepted by police in Buenos Aires Lomas del Mirador, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. His remains were found on October 17, 2014.

Since 1983, 2,826 people have died in Argentina at the hands of trigger-happy police, inside prisons or juvenile institutes. Half of these deaths were of young, poor males under 25 years, according to the human rights group, Coordinator Against Police Repression (CORREPI).
