According to him, several members of the criminal organization remain fugitives or under investigation and could react against those who publish images of the place.
“By earning a few likes, you can put your freedom at risk, from a legal point of view, and your integrity, from the point of view of the criminal structure,” said the acting director of the OIJ.
The house is no longer part of the investigation, but remains private property
The authorities indicated that the property does not belong to alias “Diablo” nor to other members of the criminal organization.
According to the investigation, the structure used homes rented by third parties and constantly changed location to avoid being located by the authorities.
The OIJ confirmed that all the necessary evidence had already been collected during the judicial inspection, so the property no longer had police interest. However, that does not mean that anyone can enter.
For this reason, the authorities recommended that the population refrain from entering or recording content in places where police operations or violent events have taken place, since these actions can lead to legal problems and represent a risk to personal safety. With information from Infobae.
