There are other extreme violence facts and more significant connotations, and these investigations need more time, she said.
In the events of July 11, some of them extended to July 12; there were aggressions against people, entities, goods, instigation to commit crimes and to subvert the constitutional order, hence the urgency of demonstrating the participation of the subjects with the pertinent evidence and responsibility, she remarked.

The recent riots in different island points gave rise to criminal investigations in Cuba on alleged criminal acts. The Attorney General's Office has as its mission the control of the investigations and what is established in the Constitution, laws, and provisions, Peña said.
She also reaffirmed the commitment always to protect public order and the tranquility of the people.
Authorities of the Caribbean nation accused the United States of its complicity in the events of July 11 through the use of technological tools and the dissemination of false news to stimulate destabilization.
