This Monday, the Second Supreme Criminal Prosecutor’s Office initiated preliminary investigations against Kelly PortalatinoCongressman of the Republic for Free Perufor the alleged crime of person concealmentl.
This comes after alleged conversations between the parliamentarian and the fugitive from justice, Vladimir Cerrón, were made public, to whom she advised to change his location so that he would not be captured by the authorities.
The Supreme Criminal Prosecutor’s Office is in charge of the investigation because it is a common crime and not a functional one.
“Urgent, change location… Don’t expose yourself”
Panorama revealed WhatsApp conversations between the congresswoman of Peru Libre, Kelly Portalatino, and the fugitive from justice, Vladimir Cerrón, to whom she gives permanent instructions to stay hidden and not be captured by the National Police.
These communications allegedly took place during the month of January of this year. In one of the chats, the parliamentarian told Cerrón: “Urgent, formal matter. “Tax issue”. And two minutes later he wrote to him as a warning: “Change your location, take precautions, don’t expose yourself”.
In a third message, apparently intended to make the conversation more secure and secret, he writes to her on “Telegram,” an application that is more secure than WhatsApp.
Cerrón’s reply came two days later, when he wrote to her: “Shall I call you?” According to the Sunday paper, the communications were discovered by one of the legislator’s employees on a computer she used.
Panorama contacted Kelly Portalatino to get her version: “I want to make it clear that women are still being stigmatized, seeing it as an act of machismo. I hope that there is no act of editing, in particular I am going to give the interview in person.”
