From the government, the Undersecretary of the Interior, Manuel Monsalve, He stressed that “perhaps the spirit of the Carabineros official is expressed in his decision in life to donate his organs and therefore the process of procuring organ donation is being carried out.”
“The second thing I want to convey is our absolute condemnation of the murder of a police officer and also our total condemnation of any act that attacks or puts the life of a police officer at risk,” he added.
“Whoever is arrested and charged a few hours ago for the crime of frustrated homicide, the detention control has been postponed precisely because the quality of the crime has changed and we therefore hope that the judicial process can determine the maximum sanction established by law , which in this case is a major prison in its maximum degree and are sentences that can reach 15 years and one day,” he closed.
