Cristina Arce's mother criticizes that no one detected that the burned nightclubs did not have a permit and alludes in her message to the statements of La Fonda's lawyer in which he maintains that the license has been burned by the fire, which destroyed the two premises.
"The papers have been burned. The blame is going to be on some, on others, on the cha-cha-chá... they are going to lie and mess around until the blame lies with the dead. Did no inspector really detect that There were no permits?? At what time is a nightclub inspected to catch it open???? In the end the dead stay in their graves and the murderers in their homes. How disgusting of everything!!!", the posted message includes in his account, which adds "may those responsible rot in hell."
