A former employee, named Daniel Vera, reported him in the last few hours for injuries, threats, robbery and unlawful deprivation of liberty. He also accused Claudia Valenzuela, the singer's mother.

Vera reported that on Sunday, March 17, after eight at night, the ragpicker, his mother and two friends savagely beat him until he lost consciousness. "A lot of blood started coming out and I almost suffocated," said the man, who, in his words, had recently suffered a stroke.
