Natalia's body was found in her home, which had also been robbed. According to her family she had received threats in the days leading up to her murder.

The inhabitants of the municipality of Cajicá, located in the department of Cundinamarca and just a few minutes from the capital, are in shock after the discovery of the lifeless body of a trans woman inside her own home. Now her family faces the pain of her absence and more questions than answers in the face of the heinous crime.

The woman, identified as Natalia Santo Domingo, was found in a room in her house located in the area known as Canelón.

According to the victim's sister, the last contact Natalia established was a call she made to her mother on January 9 at around 6:00 a.m. In this call, she stated that she had plans to go to the municipality of Tocancipá to see an apartment.

"Her room was locked, they went in and opened the room and found her dead. They locked her in with two little dogs that she had," said Diana Santo Domingo on the Citytv newscast, describing the moment of the discovery.

The family also stressed that days before the crime Natalia was receiving threats. In fact, the hypothesis being handled is that it could be a case of femicide.

In addition, it is known that some belongings such as two cell phones and cash were missing from the property where the victim was found.

The woman's relatives are asking the authorities to investigate the case thoroughly in order to find the person responsible for the crime and to ensure that justice is done.

"I sincerely hope that my sister's death will not go unpunished because she was killed in a very atrocious way, they were cruel to her and my sister was a very good person," she said.

A candlelight vigil was held in Natalia's honour in the main square of the municipality on the Monday following her murder.
