Photographer Pablo Grillo reappeared publicly after 55 days in intensive care.

Grillo, 35, was seriously injured by security forces. The photographer is hospitalized at Ramos Mejía Hospital.

Photographer Pablo Grillo briefly left the ward where he was hospitalized and reappeared publicly. It's worth noting that Grillo was seriously injured on March 12 during a federal forces operation.

Now, in an image shared on social media, he can be seen on one of the balconies of the Ramos Mejía Hospital, where he underwent surgery and has been hospitalized for almost two months. "After 55 days in intensive care, Pablo went out for a walk around the hospital today," wrote the "Justice for Pablo Grillo" account, which uploaded the image on Wednesday. In the photograph, the 35-year-old man is seen accompanied by two members of the Buenos Aires hospital's healthcare team.

Pablo Grillo, who worked independently, was seriously injured on March 12 after being hit by a gas grenade shell thrown horizontally by a Gendarmerie officer. A judicial investigation is underway into the attack on Pablo Grillo .

At the request of prosecutor Eduardo Taiano, Judge María Servini requested that the Ministry provide her with "all the proceedings conducted following the operation carried out by the security forces on March 12" and the entire "regulatory framework" applicable to the case, such as "protocols and regulations," in addition to the order issued by the Ministry to launch the operation.

In turn, the judge requested that the type of "non-lethal weapons" used that day be specified, as well as the respective "guidelines" that regulate their handling . She also requested the investigations or reports that were prepared after the events, if any. As this media outlet reported, the gas grenade that hit Grillo, an instrument designed to disperse protesters, must have been launched in such a way that its trajectory formed a pronounced parabola.

Servini requested the same information from the City's Ministry of Security, which has been in the hands of Horacio Giménez for a month following the departure of Waldo Wolf. In the context of other actions related to the same events, the City's Ministry of Security maintained that no specific protocol was implemented during the March 12 mobilization and that the current regulations on the matter are the "Protocol for the Use of Force in the Context of Police Actions," published last March in the Official Gazette.
