PLD legislator Victor Suarez denied that the recently arrested former Police lieutenant Fernando de los Santos (La Soga) had been on the run. He said Suarez was living a normal life in Santiago and it is not true that the Police were looking for him.
He said the Police cannot boast as an achievement “the capture” of La Soga. “The Most Wanted was not wanted,” said the legislator.
Suarez said he lives in Gurabo, the same community where La Soga lived. He said he is surprised the Police now want to sell to the general public the idea that the former police officer was “captured.”
La Soga has formally been accused of the death of two persons in the Ensanche Libertad of Santiago.
On Friday, three months pre-trial custody was announced for La Soga, who is accused of the death of two persons in Santiago in 2011. La Soga is suspect of many more murders. As reported in the media, the people who contracted the murders were cleared of charges in 2015.
