Regarding the witness protection system necessary for this to work, he commented that international support can be requested to be able to count on it. Even to send key witnesses abroad, considering that our country is small with only 7 million inhabitants.
SHORTER TRIALS
Also, Pérez proposes in the same project, an article to lower the rate of indictments and raise the rate of convicted.
