The defense of the police officer Facundo Nahuel Amendolara (39) requested this Monday
the release from prison
of the officer in the case that has him as a defendant for having shot Santiago "Chano" Moreno Charpentier in the abdomen at his home in Exaltación de la Cruz.
On July 30, the prosecutor Martín Zocca, head of the Zárate-Campana Complex Crimes Instruction Functional Unit, charged Amendolara (27) with the crime of
"very serious injuries aggravated
by the use of a firearm and for being a police officer ", which is sentenced to
between 3 and 15 years in prison
.
Amendolara's lawyer, Fernando Soto, assured this afternoon that, although the crime charged to the policeman "is exempt from prison and is within the law," the decision of the Attorney General's Office to put a prosecutor who investigates crimes at the head of the file Institutional Violence makes him "think that he
considers that the policeman abused his duties,
so they may use that argument to arrest him."
