An intense demonstration occurred yesterday at the Liceo La Asunción de Talcahuano after the complaint of sexual abuse against a fifth grade minor, where a high school student is accused of carrying out these acts. Students broke the front of the enclosure after what happened.
Another of the events that outraged students and parents was the revictimization of the minor when she was walked room by room to identify the aggressor of the abuse.
