John Trujillo, lawyer of Nicholas Petro Burgosson of the president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, denounced “serious irregularities” in the arrest of his client, last Saturday, by the Colombian Prosecutor’s Office.
He explained that there was a disproportionality and excessiveness in the detention of Petro Burgossince he said, they filmed him naked, which, from his point of view, is something serious.
In addition, it specified that in the hearing where the arrest of Petro Burgos and his ex-wife Daysuris Vásquez, in Barranquilla, for alleged money laundering, the defense was not called.
“However, yesterday (Sunday) we informed the judge of some serious irregularities that were committed in the search proceedings, and the judge considered that the issue was indeed very serious, but required more evidence,” he said.
The lawyer also mentioned that the operation to arrest Nicolás Petro was completely stealthy, without knocking or ringing the door, according to Laura Ojeda, the current partner of the son of the Colombian president, who is eight months pregnant.
He added that the agents of the Prosecutor’s Office entered Laura’s room, who was naked, like Nicolás Petro, and still recorded them, despite the fact that she repeatedly asked them to stop recording.
