“It’s a terrible injustice. In the formulation of the accusations, the Public Ministry makes it clear that he only received two calls and does not give any order. It cannot even be assumed that he committed crimes. Gabriel Cortez is a victim, but despite this, the Public Ministry brings charges against him due to the pressure felt by the judge“, Gabriel’s lawyer said in an interview with journalists.
