The next March 18that 9:00 a.m., before the Fourth Criminal Court of Santiago, the trial against the ex-carabinero Sebastian Zamoraaccused of pushing a young man into the Mapocho riverwithin the framework of the protests due to the social outbreak.
The event occurred on October 2, 2020when the former uniformed man attacked with his section for the Pío Nono bridge In the midst of the protests, shocking a young man 16 years old, who fell 7.4 meters to the river bed and he was left with both of his wrists broken, a head injury and a contusion at the base of his right lung.
In recent weeks, the prosecutor Francisco Ledezma filed a document before the Seventh Guarantee Court of Santiago, offering a Abbreviated procedure to the defense of the former uniformed man, which includes a sentence not exceeding five years different from his initial claim of eight years in prison.
However, the defense declined the agreement so a new trial was set for next month.
«Having not reached an agreement with the defense and the other speakers (…) I request your honor to cancel the hearing of abbreviated procedure set for the day January 30, 2024″Ledezma informed the court.
The rejection of the agreement by the former officer’s defense would be due to the reinstatement to the evidence at the trial of a report called «motor gesture» that would prove that the accused ran towards the victim to arrest her, but that when he collided with her he would have thrown her from the bridge.
He document had been excluded during the preparation of the oral trial, so Zamora’s defense presented a appeal before the Court of Santiago, which ruled in his favor.
