00:00So I was trapped with some terrible beams that could not be moved.

00:05All the right leg, the right hip, the shoulder and the right hand.

00:15And I had the left leg free, the left leg that could be moved,

00:19because above me, with some material, a shape of a dome had been formed.

00:25So I felt a little bit of air coming from one side and the other.

00:29So I knew that I could breathe.

00:33So I tried to stay calm.

00:36I told Federico that, of course, he would never answer me again.

00:41So I was sure that the poor man was no longer with me.

00:46I told him, Federico, stay calm, we have to stay still.

00:51They will come to save us, I'll let you know.

00:54And at one point, you don't know how exciting it was to hear the siren for the first time.

00:59Terrible testimony, Javi, about what happened in the collapse of Villa Gesell.

01:05Josefa is a survivor of the collapse.

01:08Josefa Bonassa, 79 years old, let's remember, was the first woman rescued.

01:14Her husband, who died, was the first body also rescued from the rubble.

01:20They were in the building, observing the hotel, or what is left of the hotel,

01:24actually there is nothing left, to the right, to the right.

01:27The building on the right is the Alfio.

01:30That's where they were living.

01:33What we are seeing there, in this image on the screen,

01:37is the moment of Josefa's rescue.

01:39She also has, in an intense and extensive talk she had

01:46with a colleague of ours from 100.9, there in Balcarce, where they live,

01:53she says that at a certain moment, when she realized what had happened,

01:59well, with the few forces she had, first she concentrated,

02:03she wanted to live, she wanted to continue living, of course,

02:07she saw that she had what she was just telling,

02:09like a kind of, that had been formed as a kind of ...

02:13Of course, exactly, like a dome, right?

02:17In the middle of all the rubble.

02:19That let her breathe a little, she had practically no light,

02:23obviously, this was in the early morning,

02:26just at 10 in the morning they rescued her.

02:28How terrible all those hours, right? For Josefa, Javier.

02:31She said she did through the Morse code, asking for help,

02:39SOS, she hit like this.

02:45She did, she hit with the bricks, yes, Morse code, as I said,

02:50she hit with the bricks and made that sound to obviously attract attention.

02:59Several hours later, after making those noises and so on,

03:04she noticed that light was coming in, light began to come in,

03:08and it is that they were removing in the place where she was, of course,

03:12they heard that sound from the outside and they were heading towards that place.

03:18How smart Josefa, because with all that fear you have to go

03:21directing them to look for you, almost without air.

03:25With patience, she said that she began to breathe,

03:29calm, she tried to calm down, she already knew that her husband had died

03:34because he did not answer and because she also saw how little she could see

03:38just how everything had fallen, that she had done yoga for a long time

03:42and that helped her, and until at a certain moment she heard a voice

03:47from someone who tells her, we are about to rescue her, stay calm.

03:52There was a brief dialogue until at a certain moment he told her,

03:57I am Mariano, I am a firefighter, we are going to rescue her, stay calm.

04:02What a relief, please.

04:04Let's see how many hours, from the collapse until they rescue her.

04:08According to the security camera of the building next to the hotel,

04:14it was 0.25, so let's calculate, 0.30 approximately, more or less,

04:19until 10 in the morning when they rescued her.

04:21We are talking about nine and a half hours, let's say ten hours, it doesn't matter.

04:25It's a lot.

04:26One hour, ten minutes, it's a lot, imagine, under the rubble.

04:29And also with death around you, in a way, with the fear that you don't know

04:34if they are going to rescue you, with all the people who no longer respond

04:37and you don't hear the screams.

04:38Let's see if we can put back Josefa's testimony,

04:41because unfortunately there are many fatal victims after this tragic collapse

04:46of this traditional Villa Gesell hotel and Josefa is a survivor.

04:51We listen to her.

04:53So I was trapped with some terrible beams that couldn't be moved,

04:58all the right leg, the right hip and the shoulder and the right hand.

05:08And I had the left leg free, the left leg, which I could move,

05:12because above me, with some material, a shape of a dome had been formed.

05:18So I felt a little air coming from one side and the other.

05:22So I knew I could breathe.

05:25So I tried to stay calm.

05:29I told Federico that of course he would never answer me again.

05:34So I was sure that the poor man was no longer with me.

05:38I talked to him and said, Federico, stay calm, we have to stay still.

05:44They are going to come to save us, I'll let you know.

05:48And at one point, you don't know how exciting it was to hear the siren for the first time.

05:53Tremendous, tremendous.

05:55Of course, I heard the siren, this was in the early morning,

05:58because the firemen were coming and everything, right?

06:00So they were coming to rescue him.

06:02And then when Mariano appears, this firefighter who rescued her.

06:06Mariano in the name of everything.

06:08Yes, yes, the whole rescue team.

06:10To get her out.

06:12Remember that when she leaves the place, something is heard.

06:16Noelia, can we put this part where she speaks?

06:20And she tells the firemen, there is a person on the first floor.

06:25She gives them directions while they are taking her to the bed.

06:28Look, what a lucid survivor.

06:32Because after so many hours trapped, with death and everything,

06:36when they are rescuing her, she is trying to help others.

06:39Help another, of course.

06:40Impressive.

06:41While they are taking her there, when they take her to the bed.

06:44At this moment she says that.

06:46She says, yes, we counted it here and we also showed it when she said,

06:50look that on the first floor there is a person too.

06:53And this is what she saw from her apartment.

06:57A building that will have to be analyzed, the alfio on one side and the other.

07:03The foundations and so on.

07:05What they see there, what is left of the hotel,

07:09well, now it has been removed almost completely.

07:13It is only necessary to rescue, at least in principle, Adana De Simone.

07:19One person is missing to be rescued.

07:21In principle, yes. It is Nahuel's girlfriend.

07:24They were all together.

07:26Nahuel was with his aunt and he was with his girlfriend.

07:28Yes.

07:29There in the hotel, on the first floor, in principle.

07:32But the prosecutor, Zamboni, what he has ordered

07:37is that until the last casket, the last stone of the place is removed,

07:43the place is not closed, the search tasks are followed

07:47because of the doubts that there is someone among the rubble.

07:51That it is not registered or that it is claimed by someone.

07:55Of course.

07:56It is good what that prosecutor does, Javi,

07:58because just as the work was clandestine in the hotel,

08:01we do not know exactly how many people there were.

08:04As is.

08:05One boasts and those who are looking boast of the testimonies of the relatives

08:10who go and claim for someone missing.

08:12Exactly.

08:13But there may be someone else among the rubble.

08:15And there may be someone.

08:16So far it is believed that it is only this young woman, this girl,

08:20who was Nahuel's girlfriend, who was also found dead in the last days.

08:26Now, Javi, was there any talk at some point that they could

08:28demolish the Linderos buildings or is this just a rumor?

08:32I did not get that information, although there is a rumor.

08:35That is, there is a rumor that they could, but the truth is that

08:38it would have to have a very damaged structure to be able to,

08:42to have the decision to demolish it.

08:44I don't know if they did the math, no.

08:47Maybe a sector is closed as a consequence of the tasks they have to do.

08:52But demolish the building next door, which is the Alfio,

08:55and then there is another one, which is another building,

08:58which is the one on the left sector.

09:00We'll have to see if this has to be done too.

09:03I didn't hear it, except for a rumor, I heard it.

09:06But asking yesterday and talking about the structures,

09:09they never mentioned to me that maybe they had to demolish

09:12the other buildings or buildings that are next to the hotel.

09:15The hotel, remember, is almost like a curve that they make at the end.

09:18Which is the center of Villa Gesell.

09:20Of course, but there it starts from that, almost pretending to be a boat,

09:25where it has the name Dubrovnik,

09:27it ends there where the last portion of the construction is,

09:31and where you see a red building in the background, that does not belong to the hotel.

09:35Okay.

09:36There, on the side, in the same terrain, in the back,

09:39is the pool, the pool, which is on the other side of the street,

09:43on Avenue 1, where the hotel is installed, precisely the Dubrovnik.

09:48And how many detainees are there?

09:50So, seven dead caused the tragedy, right?

09:52Yes, so far there is only one detainee,

09:54who is, in this case, one of the architects,

09:57Jorge Enrique Bonavita, 55 years old,

10:01who was also a volunteer firefighter,

10:03he was for 17 years,

10:05he is under arrest,

10:07accused, but imprisoned,

10:10Celso Paco Pérez, Sergio Paco Laura,

10:13father and son, Miguel Choque Gullani,

10:15Diego González, who was also a volunteer firefighter,

10:20and workers who were working there in the place,

10:23and who saved their lives,

10:25two of them, at least, who were housed in the place.

10:29All of them are accused of the cause.

10:32In the case of Bonavita, he is arrested,

10:35and, obviously, the decision is expected

10:37regarding the other three architects who are syndicated in the work.

10:42Good.

10:44Well, attention, then, with this cause,

10:47because it is still missing,

10:49it is missing to find Dana,

10:51it is also missing that, removing the rubble,

10:54there is, well,

10:56maybe someone who is not looking for anyone,

10:58and that is there among the rubble.

11:00Exactly.
