New recess in trial of Operation Hurricane: lawyer will appeal so that the Interior is not intervening | National

A new recess suffered the trial preparation hearing for the so-called “failed Hurricane Operation” in Temuco, after the defense attorney of Patricio Marín, a retired Carabineros major, announced that he will appeal the resolution that allowed the Ministry of the Interior to continue intervening in the cause but as a victim.

A new recess affects the hearing to prepare the oral trial in the case derived from the failed Operation Hurricane that had resumed this Monday in the region of La Araucanía.

This new recess derives from the request of the defense of the retired major of Carabineros, Patricio Marín Lazoafter announcing that he will appeal the decision adopted by the Temuco Guarantee Judge, Marcia Castillo Monjes, by allowing the Ministry of the Interior continues as an intervener in the case, but as a victim.

Let us remember that the Government was removed from the case as plaintiff by refusing to correct formal defects of the accusation.

In this context, the lawyer Javier Jara Müller intervened in the hearing that had resumed after a long recess, where he asked for this new suspension.


It was on May 12 of this year, when the Guaranty judge in Temuco, Marcia Castillo Monjes, decided to exclude the Ministry of the Interior, which was intervening as the plaintiff, from the aforementioned case, after the lawyer, Luis Iván Martínez, the same person who fell asleep and was unable to present the accusation in the case for the murder of non-commissioned officer Francisco Benavides, reported that would not correct the indictment in this case as ordered in court.

The defense attorney decided to appeal to the local Court which, by declaring the petition inadmissible, ratified the decision of the Guarantee judge and left the Government out of the case.

Now, when the hearing resumed, the interveners, especially the defenses, questioned that despite what was resolved, the Ministry of the Interior continues to participate as a victim on behalf of Chilean society, according to the judge in charge of the case.
