The body of Ramón Gresequi Rodríguez, a 59-year-old driver and employee of the Nickel Mechanical Company (EMNI), was found lifeless on Friday on the hill of Miraflores, in the town of Yaguaneque, municipality of Moa, Holguín, after several days of intensive searching.
The official page of Facebook "Realidades desde Holguín", linked to the Ministry of the Interior, noted that the body "showed multiple bruises" and that "a thorough investigation is underway to deeply determine the circumstances and identify those responsible."
Gresequi disappeared on Wednesday, September 10, around 11:00 in the morning, when he left his workplace driving a white Toyota truck with license plate BP 211 606, which belonged to the EMNI, where he worked as a driver.
According to his relatives, he had left without his spare medication with the intention of returning quickly, but since that moment neither he nor the vehicle has been seen again.
For its part, the EMNI called for justice for Gresequ and expressed its condolences to the victim's family.
"That wicked act will not go unpunished; they have taken away a great friend from us, you will always be in our hearts," wrote the communicator from the company.
Testimonies from neighbors gathered on social media provided chilling details: the body was reportedly found hidden in a hollow and wrapped in plastic, which the community suggests points to a premeditated crime.
The motive is believed to have been the theft of the truck that Gresequi was driving at the time of his disappearance.
The dismay spread quickly among neighbors and friends. "It's a murder, it's an injustice, I have no words... The only thing I ask of God the Father is that, for once in history, true justice is served. They have taken everything from that family—a father from his children, a hardworking good man, a husband, an educated man, a neighbor," one of them wrote on Facebook.
Another neighbor, Yakima Lamoru, who had been reporting the disappearance from the very beginning, expressed her sorrow with a message of mourning: "It is not fair that a person's life is taken away like this over something that does not belong to them, and that did not disturb anyone."
The case adds to a pattern of criminal violence linked to vehicle theft that has claimed several lives in Cuba during 2026: in April, Adonis Fuentes González died in Cienfuegos; in May, Dairon Urbay Solan was found strangled in Villa Clara and Ramón Orlando Martínez lost his life in Santiago de Cuba, both in contexts of electric tricycle theft; in August, Carlos Luis Suárez Navarro died in Cienfuegos during an assault to steal his motorbike.
Cuba lacks an official alert system for missing persons, which forced Gresequi's family to turn to community groups on Facebook and independent platforms.
The investigation remains open, and the community of Moa demands that the authorities clarify the crime and bring those responsible to justice.
