The Nicaraguan family Junior Bernardino Morales Zamoran, 29, seeks to gather the resources to repatriate his body from Costa Rica. Morales Zamorán was deprived of his life at dawn on January 1 in a town in the province of Limón, in that country.
His relatives say that the unfortunate man was celebrating the closing of the year 2022 with some friends, but in the early hours of the new year, he was attacked with a knife by a subject who has not yet been identified.
According to the forensic report, the death of Morales Zamorán occurred between zero hours and four in the morning and his body was taken from the street where he was at around 4:20 am. The family reports that he was attacked with a knife.
Jackson Heberto Morales Morazan, the victim’s brother, collects the money needed for the repatriation of the body, currently kept in the morgue of the Judicial Investigation Agency, OIJ. “We are asking friends and friends for help,” Morales said.
more than 700 dollars to repatriate body from Costa Rica
The relative explained that in order to repatriate Morales’s body from Costa Rica, it is necessary to hire the services of a funeral home to prepare it for the transfer, in addition to carrying out the legal procedures of the case. For this they need to raise between 700 and 1,000 dollars.
The relatives said that consulted funeral homes ask for 750 dollars for the service. To this amount, the cost of transportation that would take the coffin from the border post to Camoapa must be added.
According to statements by Morales, the morgue where the body is located understands the financial situation of the family and has the flexibility to wait as long as necessary, while funeral services are contracted. Once the payment is made, the family expects to receive the body at the Los Chiles border post.
«Thanks to the people who have really put their hand on their hearts and have contributed their grain of sand to us. Thank you very much, I thank you very much, God will reward you. We still lack money, we have faith that we will get it, “said the victim’s brother.
Without capturing the person responsible
“What happened is a tragedy that puts the Morales Morazán family in mourning,” laments Morales, who complained about the fact that the authorities have not yet been able to identify and capture the person responsible for the crime.
According to Jackson Morales, in following up on the case, the OIJ officials have informed him that they are working on the investigation, but have not yet received any results. «They told me that the investigation was always there. The attacker fled, but they are still at it. They are going to continue with this investigation until they find the subject and he can pay for what he has committed, “he commented for this report.
According to the information provided by the next of kin, Junior Morales had only arrived in Costa Rica three months and in his workplace he had earned the respect of his bosses for his dedication and performance. Although the brothers did not live together for work reasons, Jackson says that on December 31 he was able to speak with him and he told him that he was celebrating the end of the year.
