Once again, the prosecutor’s office will have to present the request for a hearing to legalize the capture of Nicolás Petro and his ex-partner Day Vásquez, this because at the time of initiation, Vásquez’s lawyers were not there. The first guarantee control judge stated that she waited for more than two hours, and that is why it was cancelled.
The judge made a strong call to prosecutor Mario Burgos, pointing out that he gave erroneous information. “This office has given a prudent period of two hours, because this hearing was filed at 6:35 pm, it is 8:32 and there are no defense attorneys for Mrs. Daysuris del Carmen Vázquez Castro to proceed with the start of the hearing. this audience.”
The decision was made by the judge when she rejected the request for temporary adjournment while Day Vásquez’s defense was present, the judge denied this request and the case will have to be sent for distribution again.
The judge reminded prosecutor Burgos that all guarantee control judges have previously assigned their respective shifts. “The office will not hold the hearing, it will return the respective folder to the service center, taking into account that it waited a prudent time for the prosecutor to request again when he has all the pertinent technical defense for its realization.”
As SEMANA learned, the Prosecutor’s Office will file the hearing request on Sunday and, therefore, the time of the proceeding is not yet known.
