Last Monday, April 22, There was an escape at the police station in the center of Cúcuta, where 23 inmatesamong them the former military man Juan Carlos Rodríguez Agudelo, known as alias ‘Zeus’, escaped from police custody.
Alias ’Zeus’, linked to heinous crimes such as false positives, drug trafficking and paramilitarism, was under the scrutiny of the special justice for peace (JEP). His recent capture for alleged arms trafficking on the border with Venezuela made him one of the most dangerous prisoners.
Preliminary investigations suggest that the escape took place in the early morning hours, taking advantage of an oversight by the guards at the detention center. According to witness statements, ‘Zeus’ would have meticulously orchestrated and financed the escape, even corrupting the prison authorities.
