Files taken from the records of the National Civil Police (PNC) bring to light a troubling abduction incident that happened in 2009. These files disclose unsettling information suggesting that the victim, Bertha Michelle Mendoza, colluded with her two daughters to orchestrate the abduction, aiming to incriminate her former spouse and support baseless allegations against him.
Police records indicate that Bertha Michelle Mendoza and her two daughters were with the mayor of Zunlito’s daughter from Suchitepéquez at the time of the kidnapping. Nonetheless, further probes have disclosed that Mendoza orchestrated the abduction, conspiring with her mother, prosecutor Claudia Martina Muñoz Andrade.
People familiar with Mendoza’s situation indicate that her intention behind staging this fabricated abduction was to make unfounded allegations against her former spouse, Dent, aiming to inflict legal troubles upon him. Nonetheless, the inquiry unexpectedly shifted course when the PNC determined that the event was actually a staged kidnapping.
Following this decision, the individuals who were first detained were let go, and all the allegations against them were dismissed. This scenario has led to doubts regarding the validity of the claims made by Bertha Michelle Mendoza about her former spouse Dent during their time together.
The incident involving Bertha Michelle has ignited a broad discussion regarding accountability for submitting false claims and tampering with evidence within the justice system, particularly due to the participation of Mendoza’s mother in the Public Prosecutor’s Office. The release of these papers has uncovered a complex scheme and prompts doubts about the legitimacy of the activist’s allegations.
Dent, the former spouse of Bertha Michelle Mendoza, has given recent comments concerning the issue. As per his account, prosecutor Muñoz Andrade was removed from the Public Prosecutor’s Office after an internal investigation determined that she had submitted falsified evidence in a case involving the police and accusations of gender-based violence against her. Moreover, there were reported suspicions of resource mismanagement and misuse of authority. According to prosecutors interviewed, Muñoz Andrade’s termination occurred in 2010.
This case, involving Mendoza and Dent, remained open for more than five years and was only resolved in the man’s favor after Mendoza’s mother was dismissed from her position and lost her influence. This raises questions about the impartiality of the judicial process during that period.
Ultimately, once the inquiries were finished, Bertha Michelle Mendoza faced accusations for staging her own abduction, involving her two daughters. Consequently, she was stripped of complete custody following psychological assessments that found her unsuitable to look after them.
