Eliana Revollar assures that Ombudsman’s office staff were not allowed to enter UNAMS

Ombudsman Eliana Revollar assured that agents of the Peruvian National Police (PNP) prevented access to officials of the institution that runs the campus of the University of the Mayor of San Marcos (UNMSM), who were preparing to check whether they respected the rights of students. who was detained. This is within the framework of protests demanding the resignation of President Dina Boluarte and closing of the Congress.

“The first thing I should note is that since this dialogue table was held, the ombudsman’s office has been monitoring this process. Indeed, they set a deadline for exit at 12 noon on the 19th, which was not met. continued at the meetings until yesterday information that was in the office of the ombudsman that few people remained, that many left voluntarily and that there were still those who would practically be in charge of food, liquids, which they had at the university in a fair amount, – he said in an interview with News RPP.

“We were informed that at night they would try to break down all the doors of the university, and there would be reactions against the security personnel of the university itself, and that this would force them to report to the police and the police. the fact that you indicated this act at the crime scene. Indeed, prosecutors could not participate at the crime scene. However, We believe that in a situation as difficult as the one we are experiencing, it would be appropriate for them to inform the prosecutor’s office.who soon learn about this diligence, prepare for the University of San Marcos,” he added.

“Despite the state of emergency, we must respect the decent treatment of people”

Eliana Revollar pointed out emphatically that, despite the existence state of emergency that allow the forces of order to intervene, they must take place within the framework of respect and dignified treatment of people.

“Although there may be interventions in a state of emergency, people must be treated with dignity, the conditions of their detention, and I also draw attention to the situation that happened about 40 minutes ago with the ombudsman’s office. Our head of defense The Office of Lima appeared jointly with the other revenue commissioner of Colonial and Venezuela respectively. However, they were prevented from entering. And this is something that the ombudsman takes note of, because according to our organic law there is no body that can prevent entry our institution to check the conditions under which the operation to detain civilians is being carried out (…). We also took note that there are congressmen from the republic who are denied entry,” he said.

“They are acting ex officio and indicated that this was an act at the crime scene. At the crime scene, by its very nature, prosecutorial action may be later. However, Note that in a scenario such as the one in our country, it is easy to call and agree so the prosecutors were involved in this massive operation from the very beginning, because what was created inside was a mess, information that is spread through the media and does not help what they want to build. Added to this is what happened to our employees who were told that there was an order not to enter. So if we are in a scenario in which the university is seized and the competent institutions such as the ombudsman’s office do not let him in to check the decent conditions of treatment, that there are detentions established by law, that they know where they are going to take them, that they have lawyers; that is, the minimum conditions, because we have a democracy,” he concluded.
