• Tenerife Asks the father of Anna and Olivia "calm" to resolve his return with the girls "without great damage"

  • The father "You will not see them again"

The search at the bottom of the sea with the help of a sonar and an underwater robot of the girls

Anna and Olivia

has moved in the last hours towards the area where their father's boat,

Tomás Antonio Gimeno

, was found empty and at the drift hours after they lost track.

Until now, the search had focused on a stretch of about 10 square miles off the coast of Santa Cruz, between the port and the Añaza neighborhood.

Now the

Ángeles Alvariño

is tracing a route of parallel streets that overlap to cover the surface to be explored between Santa María del Mar and Puertito de Güímar.

During this recognition, marks are established in the irregularities of the bottom that require a visual inspection a posteriori.

This inspection corresponds to the

Liropus 2000 unmanned

robot

, with the capacity to operate and collect samples beyond 2,000 meters of depth, although if it is properly adapted it can work up to 3,000 meters.

A week is about to be completed since the oceanographic vessel Ángeles Alvariño joined the search for Anna and Olivia and, for now, there has been no progress in the search for signs.

The search work on the seabed of the southeast coast of Tenerife

is proving very complicated

, according to research sources consulted by Efe, since the terrain is rocky and full of cliffs.

The area where the sonar work has moved is where the father's lacha was located, who

went to sea on two occasions

on the night of April 27, when the trail was lost.

He embarked alone, without the company of the girls, and before he loaded suitcases and bags from his vehicle, for which he had to make three trips.

On his return from his first foray into the sea, he was intercepted by the Civil Guard and proposed for sanction for skipping the curfew.

The agents did not find anything suspicious in Tomás' boat

, since at that time the mother had not yet reported the disappearance of her daughters.

Then, after midnight, it set sail again and hours later the boat was found empty, adrift and without anchor in front of the Puertito de Güímar.

A child restraint chair used by Anna was found floating in the water nearby.
