Who testifies today in the tenth hearing for the trial of Fernando Báez Sosa

The situation of Luciano Pertossi, one of the rugbiers most committed to the attack, is complicated
Luciano Pertossi this Thursday, during the course of the ninth hearing in the Court of Dolores after the trial of Fernando Báez Sosa, broke the silence and confessed not having been in the famous video where the young people involved are seen, exercising with total aggressiveness , blows on the body of the victim.
As he heard that the lawyers representing Fernando’s parents became more incisive with their questions, Pertossi knew that he could no longer remain silent.
According to official sources, the young man yesterday was tense and uncomfortable because of the verdicts that were being delivered at the trial scene, and he needed to be able to talk with his lawyer to get permission to speak for the first time public.
“They said that I came from that side, but I was not there, I want to clarify that,” said the young man.
To which the lawyer Améndola automatically retorted: “Where were you then?” “I don’t want to answer what you ask me. I don’t want to answer any other questions. Do not make an effort to ask any other questions because I am not going to answer, “Pertossi replied to the effusive questions of the prosecution and the complaint.
