Currently, Mateo remains detained at the Hainamosa police station under a default order linked to a land dispute in El Hig\u00fcero, La Cuaba de Pedro Brand.<\/p>\n\n<p>According to his son, Francis Mateo Soriano, the legal conflict originated four years ago following the arrival of Omar Osiris Ruiz, who acquired properties adjacent to those his father has occupied for the last two decades. The family maintains that they have been summoned to judicial proceedings without receiving proper notifications, which led to the current detention situation.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Detention and lack of information<\/h2>\n\n<p>The complainant recounted the uncertainty experienced when the authorities appeared at his father&#8217;s home. The officers allegedly did not provide clear details regarding the reason for the apprehension nor did they inform the family members about the detainee&#8217;s whereabouts, which forced an exhaustive search that culminated in locating him at the Hainamosa detachment during the afternoon of that day.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Judicial process under questioning<\/h2>\n\n<p>Regarding the status of the litigation, it was reported that a hearing was scheduled for last August 13th to address the case. However, the relatives point out that the plaintiff, responsible for advancing the process, did not appear before the court. Given this situation, the defense attorneys have requested measures that take into account the advanced age and health condition of the accused.<\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>A gentleman with Alzheimer&#8217;s cannot be in a detachment for a full week.<\/p><cite>Francis Mateo Soriano, son of the affected person.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Case considerations<\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Vulnerability condition:<\/strong> The family emphasizes that Francis Mateo&#8217;s health requires special attention and differentiated treatment by the judicial system.<\/li><li><strong>Property disputes:<\/strong> The case highlights the legal complexities that arise when there are discrepancies regarding land ownership and possession, where proper notification is vital to guarantee the right to a defense.<\/li><li><strong>Fundamental rights:<\/strong> Those close to him demand that the competent authorities review the procedure and ensure that the rights of a vulnerable senior citizen are respected throughout the legal process.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<p>Francis Mateo&#8217;s family maintains their stance that the process has been marked by irregularities and trusts that the authorities will act promptly to allow the man to receive the care his condition requires while the land dispute in Pedro Brand is resolved.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alleged abuse of power against senior citizen with Alzheimer&#8217;s reported in Santo Domingo The family of Francis Mateo, a man over 70 years old suffering from Alzheimer&#8217;s, has raised their voice to denounce what they consider a serious abuse of power.
