Patricia Pereyra, a renowned singer of blues, told the Listín Diario newspaper that her 15-year-old son had been drugged and raped. Three men and a woman, ages 30-32 years, are the suspects in the case. They include two employees of a Santiago TV channel that broadcasts her performances. She complained to the Police on Tuesday that her son was drugged, and obliged to have sex. She said he was intimidated and threatened with death if he denounced what was going on. General Miguel Mateo López, of the northern command of the Police, ordered an investigation to ascertain if other young men were being victimized. The men were fired from the TV station where they were employed. Patricia Pereyra placed a complaint with the Police after noticing her son had changed, becoming violent, helpless and sad. One of the suspects, who is fugitive from the Police, was their neighbor.
