On February 16, 2011, the Huancavelica Provincial Criminal Prosecutor’s Office of the Public Prosecutor’s Office filed a criminal complaint against Simón Fidel Breña Palante for a crime against humanity in the form of genocide. 145 On August 1, 2011, the Fourth Supra Provincial Criminal Court of Lima opened an investigation against Simón Fidel Breña Palante for the alleged crime of genocide in relation to the facts of this case. Subsequently, the Public Prosecutor's Office amended the legal classification of the indictment in order to charge him for the crime of aggravated homicide with the aggravating circumstances of ferocity with great cruelty, in a context of crimes against humanity. 146 On October 27, 2011, Simón Fidel Breña Palante was brought before the court, since he was a detainee in a penitentiary establishment in Lima, and on November 30, 2011 and January 11, 2012, he gave his preliminary statement before the judge of the case. 147 The evidence shows that Mr. Breña Palante’s defense attorney requested the discontinuation of the oral trial arguing that he was a minor at the time of the facts. On January 4, 2013, the indictment against Breña Palante was issued and, regarding the request for the discontinuation of the trial, it was indicated that this should be decided at the beginning of the oral proceedings. 134.

Thus, it ordered his immediate release from prison and that he appear before a Family Judge in order to resolve his legal situation. 135.
