Karim Bianchi

Senator of the Republic of Chile for Magallanes (independent) · lawyer · the highest-ranking public office holder in the corpus to report an abduction episode of his own

Biography

In May 2024 he revealed on a television interview that in 2012 —twelve years earlier, and already a regional public figure— he was driving from Puerto Natales to Punta Arenas when a rotating light shut down his car and his phone, and that he reappeared some two hundred kilometers further along the same road with no memory of the journey. What matters about the case is not the evidence, which is nil: it is the cost. Bianchi made the statement while holding a Senate seat, received sustained public mockery, and did not retract, responding only that he regretted 'the violence people unload on social media'.

Karim Bianchi · the Chilean senator who says he was abducted· 2012

In May 2024, Chilean senator Karim Bianchi (independent, Magallanes) revealed in a television interview that in 2012, while driving from Puerto Natales to Punta Arenas, a spinning light shut off his car and phone, and that he 'appeared' about 200 km further along the same route with no memory of the drive. He described aftereffects —recurring owl sightings, electric shocks when shaking hands for nearly a year— and a visit, days later, from a man who gave him supposed secret NASA documents asking him to 'spread the message'. He stayed silent for over a decade anticipating criticism, and did not retract after the wave of mockery that followed the interview.
