Eros Ramiro Cal

Eros Ramiro Cal is a retired military officer in Panama who has recently been implicated in the disappearance of priest Héctor Gallego, which occurred on June 9, 1971. At the time of Gallego's disappearance, Cal was the chief of the area in Veraguas province. His involvement is under scrutiny as the Panamanian authorities reopened the investigation into this cold case, following a ruling by the Superior Court of Liquidation of Criminal Cases, which emphasized the need to identify the intellectual and material authors of this forced disappearance, classified as a crime against humanity. Due to his advanced age and health issues, Cal may be deemed unfit for prosecution.
