The director of the National Institute of Human Rights, Sergio Micco, met again with the Minister of the Interior, Víctor Pérez, on the occasion of communicating the “consternation” of his body at what is happening in the Police.
“We have come to represent the Ministry of the Interior and Public Security our most absolute and total consternation with what is happening with the Carabineros. On Friday we were here at 4 o’clock with the minister, here in La Moneda, “he said.
According to Micco, in that instance they made Pérez see that “We are not facing isolated events, we are facing a situation that is repeated in time and space. We told him that on Friday, here at 4. Three hours later the National Institute of Human Rights was to the horror of Pio Nono ”.
“We filed a criminal complaint for attempted homicide, also for denial of assistance. That is decided by the courts. The complaint is filed, but I want to tell you that we saw what happened there, how pepper spray continued when rescuers were trying to save the life of that young adolescent, we saw it, “he said.
He added that they were also “at the Santa María Clinic. I personally saw the situation of total and complete abuse with respect to a family that was experiencing this horror. We cannot understand that contradictory statements are repeated in the Carabineros. We had three different versions, it was not the prosecutor who gave three different versions, it was Carabineros who gave three different versions between Friday and Saturday morning “.
“Then, how is it possible that we have the problems we have with summaries again. Four days later we found out that there was a personal camera, that there were no Go Pro cameras, four days later in a uniformed, hierarchical, disciplined, professional police, as the Carabineros should be ”, he indicated
Likewise, Micco explained that they request as NHRI “first, evidently that here there are not only individual criminal responsibilities, it is not only evident that civil responsibilities will be determined in the courts of justice, there are also institutional responsibilities “.
“Secondly, we have asked that any commission that is formed, etc., aims to take immediate action. As an Institute, we participate in the Carabineros Reform Council, and in that council the conclusions were delivered on March 17, and we are living what we experienced on October 2, ”he stated.
Formalizations for torture
Regarding the recent formalization of three police officers accused of torture in a police station in Peñalolén, he assured that what is important is that justice is done.
“Regarding the formalizations that are taking place for torture, the essential thing here is that it be investigated and that justice be done. In the particular case we are talking about minors. Very serious, doubly serious, “he said.
Likewise, he pointed out that “there are acts that are repeated in time and space. The institute has presented more than 400 complaints for the crime of torture or unlawful coercion, so as an institute I insist, we are completely dismayed by this. “
