Psychological violence
“The events occurred in 2004 and the Judgment was in 2011. The criminal figure of violence against women was just incorporated in 2015. In my case the non -criminal figure of family violence was applied, therefore, I cannot apply a rule that did not exist, ”said Ríos Patio.

He Judicial Branch He resolved the divorce for cause of violence against his wife.
Three to three

As it has transcended, within the Board there is no clarity or unanimity on how to solve the situation of Ríos Patio. The vice president María Teresa Cabrera and the directors Víctor Chanduví and Jaime de la Puente They support the permanence of Gino Ríos at the head of the Board. Meanwhile, the directors Francisco Távara CórdovaCayo Galindo Sandoval and Germán Serkovic Gonzalez have expressed themselves in favor of their departure from the institution for an ethical and moral issue.
The Board will continue to evaluate the situation as soon as they receive all the documentation of the Judiciary, the first week of August. Simple majority is required to declare the vacancy of Gino Ríos, who when interested is not voted. If the tie is maintained, there would also not be a way to resolve and that also favors the current president of the Board to select, appoint, monitor and control the judges and prosecutors throughout the country.
Gino Ríos hopes that over time the citizen pressure on the Board will decrease and with that changing the current trend that allows its case to be filed.
Contest to select new prosecutors
Meanwhile, the Board continues with the process against the Prosecutor of the Nation, Delia Espinoza for refusing to replenish Patricia Benavides as head of the Public Ministry. In addition, the public tender continues to appoint new Supreme Prosecutors, although there are no vacancies at this time.
New vacancies could be generated if Congress disables current Supreme Prosecutors. The JNJ and Gino Ríos seem to be preparing for that eventuality that has political interests.
