Currently, the case is being handled by the Prosecutor’s Office. The entity has requested information about the care that Leidy received. An investigation is being carried out for an alleged malpractice in the clinic. “The Loayza doctors told me that my sister could die at any moment because her condition was so critical that her body no longer reacted,” she added.
Paola pointed out that her family has filed a complaint against the dentists who treated Leidy, which was filed at the Chorrillos police station two months ago. Now they are pending the entire legal process. However, she assured that the defendants are delaying the investigation since they do not appear for the summons.
“Those responsible are Erek Espinoza Maldonado and Caleb Mendoza. This week the third summons was issued and they did not go. They justify themselves by saying that they are sick. If it’s not them, it’s one of their five lawyers. But they’re just making excuses not to go. They have even had the audacity to say that they want to give their statements virtually,” Paola told this newspaper.
