Salcedo’s Lawyer Says Christian Rodríguez Contradicted Himself in Police Testimony

Prosecutors reportedly rejected a detention request, leaving the case under investigation.

Overview

  • Christian Rodríguez appeared at the National Police Criminal Investigation office in Lima to give a statement and left without speaking to reporters.
  • Defense attorney Jorge Petrozzi alleges Rodríguez offered inconsistent answers that, in his view, undermined the complaint.
  • Petrozzi says Rodríguez could not specify actions that would substantiate his attempted homicide allegation.
  • The lawyer also cites a claimed inconsistency in Rodríguez declaring himself psychologically fit despite alleging harassment.
  • Petrozzi asserts the supposed inconsistencies drew attention from the prosecutor and the interrogating officer, and he says the detention request was dismissed.
