Zaira Milena Gómez, a woman of approximately 50 years old, was reported missing on May 3rd in Bucaramanga. According to reports, her partner informed her daughters that she had left her apartment to buy something and never returned.

Subsequently, on May 10th, during the celebration of Mother's Day, it was reported that the woman had been found dead and taken to the morgue. According to preliminary information, authorities stated that her death occurred in a traffic accident, in which she sustained serious injuries. Family members even received images of the accident showing the condition of the victim. However, the family maintains suspicions about the partner or the circumstances surrounding his death. "She was found dead in a traffic accident; her body was taken by the authorities. It was an immediate death. It happened on 21st Street. There are many inconsistencies in the partner's version. We want to know if something happened. Her belongings were at the building's entrance; the doorman told us that she had gone down to retrieve something and said she would return for it; two days later, the man retrieved his belongings that were in his apartment," said a family member, indicating that there are conflicting accounts before her death was confirmed.
