Otto Silesky Agüero

Otto Silesky Agüero is the founder of the San Agustín shelter for minors in Costa Rica, which recently gained attention after a tribunal acquitted six staff members of allegations of mistreatment and torture. Following the ruling, Silesky expressed relief at the exoneration, claiming that no minors were harmed at the shelter, but lamented that the institution would not reopen due to the damage caused by the accusations. He indicated plans to pursue legal actions to hold accountable those responsible for the unfounded claims that affected the shelter's reputation and operations.
