He also interviewed the Vice-Minister of the Interior who informed him that the Government, by means of the Council of Ministers, had entrusted the Armed Forces with subduing the riots. After that, there were explosions and a blackout. Then, he approached a fence about 50 meters away from the prison and started shouting that prisoners' delegates should show up, but there was no reply. He was not allowed to speak to the Commander in Chief of the military operation, and while he was boarding the vessel at dawn, he heard a series of explosions. Three days later, he found out on mass media about the deaths caused by the actions to subdue the riots. He tried to go back to the prison but he was not allowed to do it because the prison had become a Restricted Military Zone. In some other rioting cases, lethal weapons were not needed to subdue the uprisings. Prisoners of El Frontón could not escape anyway.

The Chairman of the Joint Command of the Armed Forces and the General Commander of the Navy declared that said information should be requested to the penal authorities or to the Special Judge of the Navy in charge of body removal. The President of the National Penal Council submitted a list of detainees in El Frontón on the day of the events, including 152 inmates, among them Víctor Raúl Neira Alegría and the Zenteno brothers, and also reported on the availability of 27 safe and sound detainees and seven wounded people. The judge determined that habeas corpus did not proceed, a decision that was appealed, and the Correctional Court of Lima by two votes against one decided that there was no cause for the appeal. On August 25, 1986 an extraordinary appeal was filed before the Supreme Court, and the Penal Court of this Trial decided to declare no nullity. CEAS filed an extraordinary appeal before the Constitutional Guarantees Court, and four of its members voted in favor of, that is, only one vote was missing to reach nullity because five favorable votes are required.
