Surprise and indignation were caused by the felling and removal of historic trees in the district of El Tambo, in the province of Huancayo, in addition to the removal of the monument to the peasant. This measure was taken by the mayor of the district, Julio César Llallico, so that the road would presumably be freed and civic activities could be carried out.

There are five trees that were in the middle of the track that were removed with heavy machinery, which caused the berm to also suffer damage, and with a machine to break concrete they destroyed the monument to the farmer. Neighbors criticized the mayor’s actions for not conserving the district’s green areas.
Councilors from the district of El Tambo and Huancayo arrived at the scene and spoke out on the matter, “This really got out of hand, he is inept, he is incapable for colliding with nature”said Councilor Percy Núñez, in an interview for Radio Huancayo, likewise Marco Antonio Coz, said that “the mayor acted like a criminal in the early morning”.

Both councilors went to the district police station and the Environmental Prosecutor’s Office, however, they were not attended to. The councilor of the province of Huancayo, Sabino Blancas, explained through a video on Facebook that the Huanca commune did not give authorization for the felling of trees and the fact will be investigated.
