On December 27, 2021, the group “Negra Venganza” claimed responsibility for the explosive attack against the National Directorate of Gendarmerie, causing significant damage to its offices and buildings after the detonation of an explosive device against its premises.
Almost a year after the attack, the repressive forces carried out important raids and arrests in order to find those responsible. On December 22, 2022, the police raided several homes in Santiago and Valparaiso, arresting about 7 people.
5 detainees will be prosecuted for different illegal elements found in their homes, a sixth is directly accused of the explosive attack against the gendarmerie, and a seventh was found with black powder in his home.
So far 4 of the detainees will be formalized, and there will be more clarity on the legal situation. Solidarity with the accused for the attack on the gendarmerie!
