The lawyer of the front leader Gustavo Loyal, Diego Camaño, appeared before the Court prosecutor, Juan Gómez, and listed one by one the irregularities that he understands that the prosecutor Gabriela Fossati committed with respect to his client. Gomez heard him. In her long speech, he told her that he was considering the possibility of formally denouncing her. According to him he knew The Observer, The lawyer plans to denounce her in the coming weeks because he understands that she did not give basic guarantees to the person investigated.
They understand that the investigative folder, to which they had access, does not reveal elements where Leal could be charged with any type of guilt. Fossati had reported that he was investigating him for a crime of concealment and The Observer public that he was framed in the case that investigated the apocryphal passports.
But according to what the lawyers Camaño and Rodrigo Martínez told Gómez, the only thing that links Leal to the case is the visit to the parents of Alejandro Astesiano al Chuy. In that meeting, they maintained, there was no financial offer of any kind. In addition, they clarified that the investigative folder – from which the reason for the investigation should be derived – only has 15 pages and 20 minutes of audio.
“We are collecting a lot of information about the actions of the prosecutor in this case and we will follow the steps that we have to take,” said the lawyer at the end of the meeting, according to Underlined.
In this case, the court prosecutor must consider it and if he understands that there is minimal merit, initiate an administrative investigation while the facts are clarified.
In the meeting with Gómez, Camaño’s core complaint was that the prosecutor did not define the reason for the investigation into his client and that his team did not provide an answer when he was summoned to court. In this instance, Fossati was not present because he was on medical leave due to stress.
Although the doctor had initially arranged for him to be off duty for 15 days, the prosecutor consulted the professional again over the weekend and he determined that he could return to work. Camaño questioned Fossati’s decision to return.
“If the reason for certification it was stress, reinstated in the middle of a shift, that is, when a prosecutor’s office has a greater workload who is on duty this week,” he said.
“This is a truly very particular situation,” stressed the lawyer, who considers that the return of Fossati when she was still certified, is, for her, a “inconvenient from a functional point of view”. “It’s a situation that you’re going to have to explain,” she said.
The reinstatement of the prosecutor occurred a few days after the Prosecutor’s Office must express itself on the investigation of Loyalwho raised before a judge last week to know the reasons for which he is being investigated, a decision Fossati made before the leave. This Thursday at 4:00 p.m., in a new hearing, Fossati must inform Leal of the reasons why he is being investigated. As reported by the Prosecutor’s Office last week, the situation of Leal must be resolved: either the reasons are disclosed or the investigation is archived.
The lawyer reiterated that “to this day” they do not know why Leal “is being investigated”, although he indicated: “We are constantly updating the information in the folder as in all cases.”
