"Our stance is united and firm; we are not going to back down from the defense of life, peace, and tranquility of all Peruvians, even less in terms of terrorism that caused so much damage to millions of Peruvians," Otarola indicated during a press conference on Friday.
After the meeting, Prime Minister Otarola emphasized that the State will not allow the meaning of the sentence imposed by Peruvian courts on the person convicted of terrorism, Victor Polay Campos, to be enervated.
The Cabinet head also announced that additional resources will be allocated to strengthen the work of the Supranational State Attorney's Office.
Besides, Otarola reminded citizens that Victor Polay Campos faces legal proceedings for murders in "Las Gardenias" case, and an investigation for endorsement of terrorism.
"During the Government of President Boluarte, that terrorist will not be released from prison. The Government has the responsibility to request the pre-trial detention and prosecution of that terrorist over other serious crimes against humanity," he stated.
"Therefore, we ask the Public Ministry and the Judiciary to act promptly and consolidate the proceedings, so that the rights of thousands of Peruvians are no longer affected," he added.
"We are respectful of international treaties, but also, whenever we must, we raise our voice in protest against acts that affect the conscience and dignity of millions of Peruvians," he concluded.
