On the followingnoon of this Sunday, January 21, the residents of the Miraflores neighborhood, in Buenaventura, witnessed a tragedy. A man attacked his 13-year-old stepdaughter with a machete in her own home. The attack went beyond the walls of the house and it was the neighbors who did justice.
The neighbors learned of the reprehensible facts and instead of calling the Police, they decided to start their justice process into their own hands. They did so while other stunned neighbors saw the attack as revenge for the attack on the minor. Minutes later, the intervention of the Dialogue and Maintenance of Order Unit, formerly Esmad, was necessary.
But not even the intervention of the Police was enough to stop the community’s onslaught as they shouted for justice and attacked the aggressor with sticks. The uniformed officers had to wait several minutes before rescuing the man and taking him to the hospital.
“Well, the people, the community, get upset and start attacking him with knives, with all kinds of objects, then the Police are alerted, they arrive at the scene and actually take him to the hospital. He arrives alive, but in the hospital he dies, due to the severity of the injuries,” a source told SEMANA.

The Prosecutor’s Office opened a formal investigation to know in detail the circumstances of manner, time and place. The neighbors’ statements will be essential to advance the investigation.
