In this case, the secretary general of the top study house said that it is not ruled out that students have joined the aggressions; however, “people outside the university” have been identified.
Regarding the damage he stated that these have not yet been calculated because an analysis is required to assess the impact not only on the library, but also to the mural of the Rectory, which is a work by the artist David Alfaro Siqueiros.
