Lawyer of Ex-Commissioner Claims Only Three Are Guilty in Loan Abduction Case

Richard Vallejos, lawyer for Walter Maciel, the former commissioner of Nueve de Julio, accused of being an accomplice to the abduction and concealment of Loan, spoke exclusively with the Argentine News Agency about the current state of the case and what he intends to argue in the trial where 'only three people should pay.' Vallejos stated that in the trial, at least Laudelina Peña 'is going to break and say what happened.' In this context, he explained why he believes his client should not be in his current position: 'In the crime of abduction and concealment, it is sufficient for one person to kidnap and hide another for the penal type to be fulfilled; there is no need to know the motive.'
