The mother of Emely Peguero Polanco, the murdered 16-year old pregnant teenager, has assured she will not rest until all of those involved in the death of her daughter have been arrested and brought to justice.
Adalgisa Polanco, the deceased’s mother, said that she was pleased with the work of the authorities so far on the case, and identified with other crimes across the country involving minors.
She spoke when participating in an activity of the Movement for Life Without Violence, which took place, Tuesday 13 September 2017 at the Juan Pablo Duarte Park in Santiago.
The protesters were carrying nine photographs of minors who have died recently. The protestors complained that the Dominican state was indifferent to acts of infantile violence and that the crime against Emely Peguero should become exemplary in ensuring justice for cases such as this.
