Legal proceedings against Manuel Monsalve

Overview

Chilean prosecutors are preparing to seek a 14-year prison sentence for former Undersecretary of the Interior, Manuel Monsalve. Following the official closure of the investigation on August 21, the Public Ministry is expected to file a formal accusation by August 31.

Regional Prosecutor Francisco Jacir stated that the accusation will align with terms previously presented in December. Once filed, the court will schedule a hearing to prepare for an oral trial. Monsalve’s defense has criticized the conclusion of the investigation, arguing that the failure to complete certain requested diligences impacted the thoroughness of the proceedings.
