The activist criticized said activity, since the ex-parliamentary is accused of being responsible for the deaths of two young people in the protests for his management in 2020.
Killa Sotelo spoke through her Twitter account and pointed out that her family will continue “persisting for justice, even if this crap from Congress makes fun of our pain and that of many families. Every action carried out by these types of people only reinforces that they are not ethical or moral people, and that they do not watch over or defend human rights.”he added.
