will decide who was at fault in
the "non guilty" verdict of the
assassination of reported
Ivannia Mora.

five others, not guilty in the

prosecutor's office and police
did not conduct a proper
investigation.

office) follow the rules of the
law in their thorough and
complete investigation.

sentence of the Ministerio
Público will not affect the case
before the judges of Casación.

say had a personal agenda
against him and that the
prosecution was tainted and many
of the prosecution witnesses
lied on the stand at trial.
