The Lola Chomnalez Case ( Spanish: Caso Lola Chomnalez) was a Uruguayan investigation and judicial process into the murder of an Argentine teenager that occurred on 28 December 2014 off the coast of Uruguay.
After eight years, a man residing in Chuy, was prosecuted on 19 May 2022 with prison for "very especially aggravated homicide" as the author of the murder. [1]
Lola Luna Chomnalez was born on 4 November 1999 in Buenos Aires, daughter of Adriana Belmonte and Diego Chomnalez.

Two days after her arrival, on Sunday, 28 December, Chomnalez went for a walk on the beach with a backpack containing a towel, a book and money.
