Recently, it was announced that a Colombian, born in Bogotá, died tragically in Australia after suffering a traffic accident. The man was only 27 years old and responded to the name Santiago Pérez. His death occurred after attending a Novena.

“I was in the Ninth celebrating my cousin’s birthday, he leaves the celebration and goes on the motorcycle, it was a high-displacement one; According to what the girlfriend tells me, he was not going fast,” said Juan Sebastián Pérez, Santiago’s brother, in an interview with Noticias Caracol.

According to what Santiago’s brother said, Santiago likely experienced dizziness before losing control of the vehicle, which reportedly resulted in the crash. With regret, his brother concluded: “he lost control of the motorcycle, his body became loose and the crash occurred.”

A year ago, Santiago Pérez’s loved ones said goodbye to him, as he aspired to realize his dream of residing and working in Australia, as do hundreds of Colombians who leave for that country every year.

Santiago Pérez’s aunt, Dora María Bello, requested assistance through the previously mentioned means to bring the young man’s body back from Australia, since the procedure would be too expensive.

In the message on the page, the wish is expressed that he can return to Colombia to say goodbye to his family and rest in peace in his country of origin. It is important to note that Juanes, the Colombian singer, also spread this aid campaign through his account on platform X, the social network previously known as Twitter.

“Help is needed to repatriate Santiago to Colombia. He had an accident in Australia and died. Here is the campaign of María Fernanda Pérez, his wife, in case you want and can help. In Memory of Santiago Pérez,” wrote the renowned singer.
