Argentine authorities have identified the remains found near the former home of rock icon Gustavo Cerati as those of Diego Fernández, a 16-year-old boy who disappeared in 1984. The discovery has reopened a 41-year-old cold case in the Coghlan neighborhood of Buenos Aires. Investigations suggest that Diego was murdered, and a former schoolmate, now 58 years old, has emerged as the primary suspect. This individual has presented himself to the prosecutor's office but has provided contradictory explanations regarding the crime. The victim's family has expressed their anguish, noting that their father died searching for Diego. The case has drawn renewed public attention alongside commemorations of Cerati, who would have turned 66 years old recently and is remembered as a seminal figure in Latin American rock music.
