A Judge with the Function of Control of Guarantees ordered a measure of deprivation of liberty in their places of residence to six members of the Police who were captured in Santa Marta and Medellín for their possible responsibility in the simulation of search warrants to seize narcotics stored by drug trafficking networks in properties in the Colombian Caribbean, especially in Magdalena.
The agents under investigation are the superintendents Gabriel Ochoa Arias and Arlinzon Córdoba; as well as the patrolmen Eduardo Ochoa Arias, Larry William Berg González, Víctor Alfonso Acevedo Rodríguez and Sammy Joel Palacio Mendoza.
“A prosecutor from the Specialized Directorate for Drug Trafficking charged them with the crimes of trademark falsification, illegal use of uniforms and insignia, embezzlement by use, rape in another’s room by a public servant, abuse of authority due to failure to report, abuse of public office, association for the commission of a crime against the public administration, reception; and manufacturing, trafficking and carrying of weapons, ammunition for restricted use, for the exclusive use of the Armed Forces or explosives, charges that the defendants did not accept,” the Attorney General’s Office said in
According to the investigating entity, the uniformed officers allegedly took advantage of the functions they performed to use the official vehicles assigned to them, alter the identification systems and travel to the collection points for the caches. In addition, they used firearms, entered and intimidated the occupants, making them believe that they were complying with a court order, and took the illicit substances to sell them to a criminal structure.
