The psychologist who treats Gil Pereg said that “he may not have been aware of his actions”

This Monday the jury trial was resumed against Nicols Gil Pereg (38), accused of having killed his mother Phirya Saroussy (63) and his aunt, Lily Pereg (54), in January 2019 in Guaymalln, and some of the testimony of the day favored the defense, which tries to show that the accused is “unimpeachable.”

One of the most anticipated testimonies was that of the psychologist who currently treats Gil Pereg at El Sauce hospital.

The professional gave a review of the defendant’s life and assured that, possibly, he could “not have been aware of his actions”

“He has a chronic delusional disorder or paraphrenia, which is in the group of psychoses,” said the woman, and then added: “He has a systematized delusion and if the delusional nuclei are touched, his behavior could be altered. reality was being altered, he could not be being aware of his actions “.

During her story, the psychologist also again brought to light the alleged sexual relations that Gil Pereg had with his mother, which for the defense could have been the motive that originated the double murder.

“What he says is having had sex with his mother about 5 times, but not being able to have children, so they attend a fertilization clinic. That’s when his mother takes him to a psychiatric hospital and he feels betrayed by her. All this may be part of the construction of the delirium. From Israel they did not give us information, we had to reassemble their history from the anamnesis technique, which is a scientific method, “he pointed out.

This Tuesday the last day of testimonies will take place. Moshe Pereg, a brother of the victims and the well-known expert Mariano Castex, who is proposed by the defense, among others, is expected to testify.

In this way, the debate Wednesday will have its closing allegations stage and subsequent deliberation by the popular jury, which must unanimously define whether Gil Pereg is guilty or not.
