José Carlos Acevedo, mayor of Pedro Juan Caballero was the victim of an attack on Tuesday afternoon. He was injured, but is still alive. He was referred to the Viva Vida private sanatorium.
The incident occurred when he was leaving the municipality. He left without custody towards the Palace of Justice, on the way the attack occurred. The assassin fled on foot after attacking the communal chief.
The main commissioner Alcides Cantero alleged that he does not handle any data in this regard. According to preliminary data, he is in a serious state of health.
It should be remembered that the community chief had denounced in February of this year that the head of investigations of the National Police knows who the assassins are and nothing is done.
Acevedo has had to deal with tragic family events in recent years. First due to the death of his brother and then deputy Robert Acevedo. The death occurred in February 2021, due to complications with Covid-19.
Added to this is the death of her niece, Haylee Acevedo on October 9, 2021. This after a case of hitmen that targeted the sentimental partner of the 21-year-old.
