Since then, his whereabouts remain unknown and, to date, there are no clear answers about what happened.\n\nThe authorities of the Public Ministry, the National Police, the Dominican Republic Army, and Civil Defense, joined efforts for search and investigation work for more than 37 days. To do this, they deployed drones, thermal cameras, and specialized canine units, with the aim of tracking the wooded and mountainous area of Los Tablones.\n\nIn January, the child’s parents went to the community of Barrero<\/strong>, Imbert, Puerto Plata, to ask the technicians of the Federal Bureau of Investigation<\/strong> (FBI, in English) who are working on the search for the also missing Brianna Genao<\/strong>, to verify their son’s case.\n\nThe parents have described the mobilization of national and international resources in other cases as painful and frustrating, while that of their son remains, in their words, totally buried.\n\n\n
\n

“It hurts us to see how the whole country moves, even the president, for other cases, but for our son’s case, nothing was said. There was no interest, no pressure, and no results,” Calder\u00f3n stated on one occasion. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe authorities did not identify any specific person as responsible for the disappearance<\/strong>. During that time, the agencies in charge kept different lines of inquiry open, without achieving conclusive results about the whereabouts of the minor.\n\n\n

Among the hypotheses raised by family members, the possibility arose that the child had fallen into a river near the place where he was last seen. Although this version was considered plausible within the investigative process, no evidence was found to confirm it.<\/p>\n\n\nThe prosecutor for Girls, Boys and Adolescents<\/strong>, Pedro Veloz, stated in the midst of the investigation that “this was a case of vital importance for the prosecution”, and that they would conduct interviews to investigate clues about his possible whereabouts.\n\nIt is recalled that magistrate Olga Din\u00e1 Llaver\u00edas, head of the National Directorate for Children, Adolescents and Family (Dinnaf), also met for several hours with members of the National Police and with various organizations that were carrying out the search for the three-year-old minor. Upon leaving the meeting, the magistrate was reserved and refused to offer details about the progress of the search. To this day, they have not revealed any progress on what happened to Roldany<\/a><\/strong>.\n\n\n
