Overview
- The Security Ministry formalized the offer Tuesday in Resolution 302/2026, inviting anonymous tips to the national 134 line for information that leads to his capture.
- The case advanced after Judge María Servini ordered detention for extradition, with a March 31 capture order and a failed raid at his Moreno home leaving him a declared fugitive.
- Hours after the reward was published, Apablaza’s lawyer asked the UN Committee Against Torture to halt any transfer to Chile, citing torture risk and his age and health.
- Chile’s President José Antonio Kast raised the case with Argentina’s Javier Milei on Monday and said he was confident Apablaza will be detained and sent to face trial in Chile.
- Apablaza, 75, a former leader of the Frente Patriótico Manuel Rodríguez, is accused in Chile of planning the 1991 killing of Senator Jaime Guzmán and taking part in the Cristián Edwards kidnapping after refugee status granted in 2010 was later revoked, reopening the path to extradition.
