Two rural workers found carbonized in shack on Santa Fe estancia

A grim discovery was made in Aguará Grande, Santa Fe, where two rural workers from the Chaco province were found carbonized inside a small dwelling on an estancia. The victims, identified as Carlos Maidana, 33, and Germán Daniel Rostán, 31, were from Charadai, Chaco, and were employed in temporary fencing work.

The scene, which unfolded on Sunday morning but came to light on Monday, presented authorities with a horrific sight. Upon arrival at the "Los Horcones" rural property, police encountered a completely incinerated metal shack containing fragments of at least one body. A short distance away, a second body was found charred near a bonfire.

Adding to the disturbing tableau, a pickup truck, license plate XJF 872, was also found burned nearby, along with various rural tools. Investigators noted potential bloodstains on the vehicle and evidence of a possible drag mark. The case has been provisionally classified as a "presumed homicide followed by suicide," but investigators have not ruled out the involvement of a third person.

Forensic specialists are meticulously examining the scene, collecting samples from the truck and working to distinguish between evidence altered by the fire and that which predates it. The fiscal Emilce Fisore is leading the investigation, with specialists from the Scientific-Forensic Division of the Investigations Police (PDI) collaborating with volunteer and Zapadores firefighters.
