The undersecretary of the Interior, Juan Francisco Galli, stressed that the seven year old daughter of the murdered Mapuche community member Camilo Catrillanca “was not arrested”Instead, “it was handed over to a responsible adult” by the Investigative Police (PDI).
In conversation with CooperativeGalli clarified that “it is important to distinguish: the minor was not arrested, the information was requested from the Investigative Police as soon as I had knowledge of this incident.”
And he stressed that “what happened there is that the people who were arrested, who were two women of legal age, were with this minor and the minor was given to a responsible adult, who was her grandfather, so as not to leave her alone because the two people she was with were effectively detained. “
“We must wait for the investigation, in what context this happens and why the police carried out this action“, said.
Through social networks, it became known how the minor is arrested by police personnel, even on the ground, to which the government authority replied that “these are images, so what you have to see is what exactly the procedure was “.
The incident occurred on the same day that the former policeman who killed Camilo Catrillanca was found guilty.

“Nobody, neither in the PDI, nor in the Government, and I hope that nowhere in Chile, wants to harm a 7-year-old girl. Children and adolescents are a group that require special protection, in that logic, the police could not abandon a girl 7-year-old who was only accompanied by two people who were being detained, “he added.
PROCEDURE IN TEMUCUICUI
The undersecretary also responded to questions about the search procedure that was carried out in the Mapuche community of Temucuicui, in the commune of Ercilla, where a PDI inspector died, especially due to the coincidence of the date, the same day that it was declared guilty of the crime of simple homicide to Carlos Alarcón, a former Carabineros sergeant who caused the death of Camilo Catrillanca.
“The date of the hearing to read the verdict was a different date, earlier, and as a result of quite circumstantial situations, the date was postponed until it coincides with the first day of January,” he said and, in addition, defended that the “the amount of contingent was what the police considered adequate to perform the procedure “.
“These types of procedures, when fighting drug trafficking, are carried out wherever this illegal activity is, no differences, no discrimination“, he assured and pointed out that behind this there is a judicial order and a preparation of the police” months in advance. “
