Since mandatory quarantine was declared for all those who traveled to areas considered to be at risk for the circulation of coronavirus, there have been a large number of complaints of non-compliance and even detentions. A video was released on Sunday that generated outrage on social media: a violent man who couldn’t stand his breach of the law brutally attacked a security guard.
The assailant was identified as Miguel Angel Paz, tenant of a building located on Rosales 2793 (Olivos, Vicente López) and had returned from the United States last week. The victim, Gustavo Granucci, criticized him: “You’re not complying with the health protocol, take her out of here, I got off guard,” to which the attacker responded with insults and punches. The event happened on Saturday around 9:20 p.m. Police personnel (who held Paz at his home) and the SAME, who assisted the monitor, intervened. They also conducted tests to determine if both men are infected with the COVID-19 virus, which would have been negative.
This morning, President Alberto Fernandez referred to the case and said, “I’m looking for where that gentleman lives and locking him up personally so everyone understands that you can’t be so stupid and not realizing the risk they put people in.” The prosecutor on duty in Vicente López, Martín Gómez, who charged the neighbor with “injuries and threats”, intervenes. The federal judge of San Isidro, Lino Mirabelli, who investigates the possible violation of articles 205 and 239 of the Criminal Code of the Nation, which provide for the protection of general health and the crime of disobedience, also works.
