NAUCALPAN.- The Attorney for the Protection of Children and Adolescents of the Naucalpan DIF System, Graciela Galvany Pescador, denounced on May 11 the priest Sergio Gutiérrez Benítez, known in wrestling as Fray Tormenta, for the alleged sexual abuse of a minor.
This is a 16-year-old adolescent, identified by the acronym GSR, who was transferred two years ago from the Naucalpan Namiqui Pilli municipal shelter to the Casa Hogar Cachorros de Fray Tormenta AC, located in Texcoco.
According to the complaint filed with the Mexican Attorney General whose Investigation File is 554530360044516, to which METRO had access, the minor reported having been sexually abused.
In the lawsuit, Galvany Pescador narrates that staff from the municipal shelter came to pick up the minor from the wrestler’s home, as they reported him for allegedly bad behavior and drug use.
“C. (citizen) Emilia Trejo transferred the minor to the Namiqui Pilli Temporary Children’s Shelter the same day, telling him (the minor) about various situations and facts presumably constituting crimes of rape and sexual abuse perpetrated against him and other minors whose identity unknown,” the document read.
In the minor’s psychological report, attached to the complaint, it is noted that GSR presents emotional damage and acknowledges drug use to “endure” the sexual abuse by the priest.
In this regard, the 73-year-old priest Fray Tormenta said he was unaware of the complaint filed against him, since up to now he has not been notified by any authority about the crime he is accused of.
The priest confirmed by telephone that he had a minor in his custody, whom, due to misconduct and addiction, he asked to be taken from his shelter.
“It probably belongs to a boy who was with me from there in Naucalpan, and precisely I spoke to her (the attorney) because she used a lot of drugs, so I spoke to her telling her that she couldn’t be there, I even told this boy that I was going to take him to do an anti-doping test and he didn’t want to”, he commented.
Fray Tormenta denied that he had sexually abused the minor, who, according to his calculations, was under his care for two or three years.
