The Socialist Party senator Alfonso de Urresti commented on the formalization of Claudio Crespo, the main defendant for shooting Gustavo Gatica in the vicinity of Plaza Baquedano in the midst of the social outbreak.
De Urresti told CNN Chile that he hopes that everything that happened will be investigated and not only the act of violence itself, the shooting, he said, but “the manipulation, the tampering of a camera that is precisely for the protection of citizens,” he added.
Regarding the ongoing investigation, De Urresti pointed out that “I think it is very important. It has been slow, but a thorough investigation has been carried out. “
The socialist parliamentarian also referred to the decision of the institution to baptize the Academy of Police Sciences with the name of Rodolfo Stange, a former general of the Military Junta and accused in the Degollados Case. “It is an evident example of an absolute lack of control in the Carabineros in matters of management, which is not only explained in these criminal acts of these tremendously serious crimes that caused the loss of sight of a citizen (…) but also with that brutal nonsense that We saw in the week of naming the police institute with the name of a former member of the Military Junta, “he said.
For de Urresti, the decision was a “provocation to the victims of the Degollados Case” and indicated that the government should request the resignation of the general director of the Carabineros, Mario Rozas, after this failed tribute.
“General Rozas should already be out of the institution with an effective resignation by the government of the day,” he declared.
