The night of April 20 was marked on fire in the memory of the Pérez family. Cristiana worker from Gallegos River that sought a better future in The caphatehe died after a agony of thirteen days for burns and intoxication, after the workshop where he slept was intentionally burned. Almost three weeks after the crime, the investigation does not advance, and the despair of their loved ones grows in the midst of a judicial system that, according to them, has left them in abandonment.
A cowardly attack in the middle of the night
The incident occurred in the Cerro Calafate neighborhoodwhen at least three people entered the property, they spread fuel and set fire. Firefighters and the Police confirmed that it was not an accident, but a deliberate act. However, until today there are no detainees, and the cause seems stagnant in a bureaucratic maze that outraged the family.
Congratulations Armoa, Cristian’s mother, and Nicolás, his brother, traveled from Río Gallegos to El Calafate in search of answers. What they found was more frustration. “Son, there are several days of your death and still nobody imprisoned for what they did to you. WHAT FLOW justice WE HAVE IN THIS COUNTRY“Felicitas wrote in her Facebookwith a pain that crosses the screen.
Nicolás, meanwhile, does not hesitate to qualify research as a “disaster“In social networks, his claim is overwhelming:“Justice for my brother. He was not bad, he didn’t deserve to die like this. They have to pay those rats that are living as if nothing in Calafate. ”His words reflect not only pain, but also the fear that this type of crime is unpunished, perpetuating a cycle of violence that has already gained too many lives in the country.
“Son, there are already several days of your death and still nobody imprisoned for what they did to you.”
Happiness Armoa
The search for justice in a system that fails
As he could know The southern opinionthe family now has the advice of the lawyer Gabriel Giordanobut the way ahead is long. The case of Cristian Pérez is not isolated: in Argentina, many crimes remain in the nebula of impunity, especially when the victims are humble workers, invisible by a system that seems to move at two speeds.
In the same sense, it is expected that, in the next few days, the family travels to the tourist town again in order to make visible their claim for the lack of advances in the investigation.
