The National Police are continuing the search for the remains of the 24-year-old woman who disappeared in Palma on October2 and apparently got into a rubbish container to collect something, got trapped and was allegedly taken by a waste collection truck to the Son Reus incinerator. Sources from the investigation have said today that the inspection of the main waste plant in Mallorca is continuing in an attempt to confirm the presence of Agostina Rubini’s remains.
Last Monday, the police reported that the Homicide Group of the National Police investigating the disappearance was working with the hypothesis of ‘an accidental death’, without the involvement of third parties. The investigators believe that the death was accidental and that there was no aggression and that it was not a suicide.
Tomorrow, Thursday the National Police will hold a press conference to report on the details of the case. For now, according to police sources, it is known that the young woman went out with some friends on October 2 in the Paseo Maritimo and Santa Catalina area.
After saying goodbye to her friends, her trail was lost and her family filed a complaint with the police.
Investigators have confirmed that she got into a container and it is believed that she was unable to get out, so a lorry from the Municipal Water and Sewage Company (Emaya), on its usual route through the city, took her away and unloaded her at the incinerator.
The organisation SOS Desaparecidos reported on social networks the disappearance of this young woman of 1.60 metres tall, with brown eyes and brown hair. On the night of her disappearance she was wearing jeans, a brown T-shirt and a leopard print shirt, according to a photo from that day published by the organisation.

Sibe MentoYou’re right, those rubbish containers are above ground. When I wrote my previous comment I didn’t yet know which area they were referring to. However I don’t think we should pay attention to the ‘local buzz’. All speculation. The police stated that on the way to the bus stop she stopped at a grocery store she frequented.
Should this headline end with a question mark? If it were the bins beside AC Ciutat, they would be the old above-ground plastic types, not the new underground metal ones. How is it possible to voluntarily enter one of these bins and neither escape nor make enough noise for a passerby to hear? One plausible explanation is that she became unconscious due to the way she entered the bin, such as head trauma from falling headfirst onto debris—especially if she was inebriated. However, local buzz suggests she did not accidentally trap herself in the bin. She was killed elsewhere—allegedly on a boat in the Marina. The CCTV that would prove she was in the vicinity at the stated time is on Plaça del Pont, pointing from AC Ciutat in the direction of Santa Catalina.
Just TogetpublishedWhat do you mean by ‘there’? Where she supposedly fell into the container? This apparently was near the Plaça del Pont. She was presumably on her way to get her bus home as there was a bus stop nearby.
Stan, Myself, I can read and my question still stands, why was she there?
Just TogetpublishedThe report states this poor unfortunate woman had got into the Skip. To collect something. But could not get back out.
Just TogetpublishedThe only explanation I can think of is that she threw something into the rubbish container and accidentally dropped her phone in too. Then trying to rescue her phone she fell down inside and was unable to get out again. Apparently her phone was traced to the recycling plant. Maybe the rubbish container was the underground type. Absolutely horrific poor girl and her poor family.
Why on earth would she be there in the first place.
