Peruvian Mother, 33, Missing in Spain After Dispute as Family Urges Review of Hotel CCTV

Relatives say a required judge’s order to view hotel video is slowing the search.

Overview

  • The WhatsApp message sent at 1:37 p.m. on April 6 is the last confirmed contact with Elba or Elva Rocío Cruz.
  • Security video shows her leaving her residence in Vinaròs with a suitcase after a dispute with her partner.
  • Family email checks indicate she spent two nights at a Barcelona hotel, with no verified sightings after that stay.
  • Relatives say the Guardia Civil has not accessed the hotel’s cameras because it needs a judge’s order.
  • Her family alleges prior abuse by the partner and has asked Peruvian ministries for help, while caring for her three children in Chile and fending off extortion calls.
