Chile's Minister of Women Judith Marín publicly criticized a court's total dismissal of charges against Ghislain Jesús Quiroz Carrizo, who confessed to the 2006 murder of Mariana Sepúlveda in Conchalí. The judicial decision leaves the confessed perpetrator free, prompting government concern over the justice system's handling of femicide cases. This marks a notable political intervention in a judicial outcome, highlighting tensions between the executive and judiciary.
