Adolfina Camelli Ortigoza, 21, was rescued last week after being kept captive in her home by husband Pedro Heriberto Galeano who subjected her to constant beatings, the Mirror reports.
Her face was said to be completely disfigured by a series of brutal attacks. Yesterday the woman’s lawyer claimed Galeano, 32, would become violent when anyone liked the photos she posted of herself on Facebook.
Galeano later took control of her Facebook page, where he would post pictures of her, and continued to punch and kick her for every ‘like’ the posts received. Lawyer Arnaldo Martinez told how Ms Ortigoza, from Nemby near Asuncion, Uruguay, would dread a notification telling her that someone had reacted or commented on a post. Her friends had no idea that each time they made the friendly online gesture she would be brutally beaten.
“He controlled the victim’s social networking sites, he controlled the messages and photos, and for every ‘like’ she received from her friends, the woman received a beating because he accused her of having a relationship with them.”
Mr Martinez said she only didn’t lose her teeth because “he would put a cloth in her mouth so that she would not scream during the brutal beatings that she suffered daily.”
The man’s father finally reported his violent son to the police after he believed the woman would die following the last attack.
Ms Ortigoza was so disfigured by the violence she couldn’t recognise herself from photographs taken after she was beaten by her husband. She underwent reconstruction operations of the nasal septum and lips.
her husband has since been captured and charged with attempted femicide, deprivation of liberty and coercion. He could be sentenced to up to thirty years in prison if convicted.
