The president of the National Penitentiary Council of the National Penitentiary Institute (COMMIT), Federico Javier Llaque Molla, explained in RPP the prison situation of Alexander Toledowho was extradited from USA to be judged by Peruvian justice.

He maintained that, for the moment, it has been arranged that the former president not meet with other detainees, such as the former presidents Pedro Castillo y Alberto Fujimori —both also confined in Barbadillo.

“We could avoid it, ultimately it’s going to depend if they decide to meet. But for now the provision is that they not meet because total isolation is also not allowed in the prison system. The TC has already ruled on the matter,” declared the president of INPE in La Rotativa del Aire-Edición Noche.

Besides, Llaque Molla He said that Toledo’s cell has two rooms, a bedroom and an area before his bedroom where he can receive visitors. “He has a bathroom, a shower and then a patio or garden where he can go out during the day,” he told RPP Noticias.

“He [Toledo] It is of course in the early days, always adapted for a primary prisoner as is his condition in the Perubecause he was already detained in a prison in the USA. There is always a period of adaptation, but he is going through it, there he has permanent, medical supervision, help from professionals for any need, they are there to help,” he added.

On the other hand, Federico Llaque pointed out that the former president can receive visits and that the Penitentiary Technical Council of the prison has determined that there are five visits for each visit date “and they begin this week under control and security measures.” “Thus they shall be carried out.”

Effective collaboration will not be accepted

On the eve, the lawyer Roberto Su, legal defender of the former president Alexander Toledoannounced that its sponsored effective collaboration will not be accepted as part of a strategy to reduce the 20 years in prison requested by the Prosecutor’s Office as part of the accusation against him for the Interoceanic case for which he is serving pretrial detention.

“Only those who say ‘I am guilty, I accept my guilt and start a negotiation’, but those who say that they have not participated, like my patron, who has no knowledge of the facts, do not have to avail themselves of effective collaboration. No person can accept a crime to try to seek a benefit,” he said.

In statements to the press after a new hearing in the Interoceánica case, the lawyer justified that the ex-president, for a second chance, did not participate, he said, because the prosecution control does not require the participation of the lawyer because it is about a “technical debate” in which the defendants do not participate.
