The Defense Minister, Carlos Homes Trujillo, spoke from Medellín on the vandalism attempts against the facilities of the public force.
“With regard to vandalism and violence against public facilities, we reject that attitude that does not correspond to what should be the relationship of citizens with the authorities.”
In addition, the senior official of the National Government said that, “While we understand the pain and outrage we share, it cannot translate into violence against the infrastructure.”
Keep in mind:
The violent images in Medellín add to the recent attacks on the CAI of Villa Luz, in the town of Engativá in Bogotá, where dozens of people broke windows and even burned a motorcycle.
Authorities such as the Police, the Prosecutor’s Office, the Attorney General’s Office and the Mayor’s Office of Bogotá are supporting the investigations to clarify the facts and carry out the corresponding judicial procedures.
