Anabela Sabrina Olmedo, 33, was arrested on June 16, 2026, suspected of involvement in the death of Daniel Osorio Peñaloza, 46, who served as a manager at Gen Tech, a technology company founded by Martín Menem, a prominent Argentine politician and businessman.
The victim's body was discovered on June 8, 2026, inside his apartment located in Caballito, a well-known residential neighborhood in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (commonly referred to as CABA). The case quickly attracted significant media attention due to the victim's connection to Menem's business empire.
The initial autopsy report revealed pulmonary and brain edema (swelling caused by excess fluid), findings that have raised more questions than answers regarding the exact cause of death. Authorities are currently awaiting toxicology results to determine whether any substances were involved.
The case has been officially classified as a homicide investigation. It is being led by prosecutor Eduardo Cubría, with oversight from Judge Paula González.
