posted (September 1, 2010)
The funeral for 57 year old Gregorio Eustaquio Cornejo was held today in Libertad Village , but while he is being laid to rest, police have not brought charges against the 20 year old hotel guest, Abel Barela who allegedly punched him into the sea, and caused him to drown.

Police say the DPP has to issue a directive on what charge should be laid because Barela punched him, but it's not the blow that killed the older man, he died when he fell into the sea and drowned.
