Despite having evidence of not having participated in 11J he was arrested



On July 16, 2021, when the victim was walking near the PNR, the Sector Chief told him that he should accompany him to the 4th Police Unit in Infanta. When he arrived there, he was told that he was going to be arrested because a police officer confirmed that he had been identified in a video of him throwing stones during the 11J demonstrations, a video that no one else has seen. Despite the fact that the victim had a letter signed by 26 neighbors, including the president of the CDR, confirming that he had remained in his house on July 11, Acosta's DTI officers refused to receive it.
