Colonel PNP’s lawyer Harvey ColchadoMiguel Pérez Arroyo assured that his sponsor’s retirement is “revenge” for his role in the raid on the president’s house. Dina Boluarte.
“It is revenge, retaliation, the creation of a structured plan that I believe the Prosecutor’s Office already has enough material to specify the accusation that this case will give. [caso Rolex]”he told RPP.
The lawyer considered that retiring the former head of the Diviac, as well as Colonel Walter Lozano, “constitutes a waste of the public budget’s assets in the training of, probably, the best prepared police officers that exist right now.”
“This government is used to doing that, getting rid of the best, keeping the worst and wasting public money,” he said.
Likewise, Pérez Arroyo considered that the resolution signed by the Minister of the Interior, Juan José Santiváñezis “a disincentive for police officers who want to do things well.” This is because the measure is based on the fact that Colchado had not been appointed due to his seniority in office.
“Colonel Colchado is a police officer with eight years of seniority, but that seniority is based on the merit promotions he has had: Operation Chavín de Huántar and the capture of the terrorist ‘Artemio,'” he said.
“We are not going to stay with our arms crossed”
Pérez Arroyo announced that there are already judicial resources that have been presented in different jurisdictions. However, he indicated that these will not be resolved before January 1, 2025, the date on which Colchado’s retirement will become effective.
“The damage that is being caused to the State, the PNP and the citizens is going to happen anyway,” he said.
Along these lines, he announced that in his capacity as legal defense of the retired colonel, he will take action “immediately.” “For reasons of strategy, I am going to reserve that content for myself. We are not going to sit idly by,” he emphasized.
