Captain Carlos Alberto Vega was sentenced to 12 years in prison for his involvement in the abduction and appropriation of Marcos Ramos in 1977 during Argentina's military dictatorship. Vega was convicted as a "necessary participant" in the unlawful detention, concealment, and alteration of the brothers' legal identities. The brothers, Marcos and Elías Ismael Suleiman, were taken from their mother's home as infants and raised under false identities.
Vega allegedly played a key role in altering Marcos' legal identity and facilitating his handover to the military family that raised him. He also participated in an attempt to falsely document Elías Ismael Suleiman. Vega will remain under house arrest with an ankle monitor, and the court ordered asset reparations for the brothers, guaranteeing their continued psychological assistance.
