In General Ramírez, a councilman from La Libertad Avanza has submitted a resolution to the Deliberative Council demanding the resignation of Vice Mayor Carlos ‘Tito’ Troncoso.

The motion follows public allegations of gender-based violence. The resolution characterizes the incident as a “severe domestic altercation with harmful consequences” and argues that Troncoso’s continued presence in office is an “unacceptable institutional setback for the democratic values of this municipality.” The proposal seeks to uphold institutional dignity by requesting his “unshakeable resignation” due to a loss of moral suitability for public functions.
