The
President of the Republic Dina Boluarte on Thursday affirmed that no impunity will be tolerated in the case of people who died during the protests that took place in various regions across Peru.
Likewise, the Head of State underscored that the Government will provide all the necessary facilities to the Public Ministry and the Judicial Branch so that they can individualize the facts.
In her speech, the dignitary explained that when she took office —in a constitutional manner and following an attempted coup d'état— she had no idea that such violence was going to erupt throughout the country.
"Impunity will not be tolerated. Facts have to be investigated and individualized. Besides, the Public Ministry and the Judiciary will assume their roles accordingly," Mrs. Boluarte remarked.
"We did not cause this violence. When I took office, I affirmed that this would be a government of dialogue because we came from behind, faced with tremendous polarization," she stated.
In this regard, the country's top official emphasized that violence and the deceased hurt her soul, adding that in the wake of the deaths, all the necessary facilities were given to the Public Ministry so that it can carry out its investigative work, in the exercise of its functional autonomy.
