One of the people who was with Javier Ordóñez on the day of his death, Wilder Andrés Salazar, told what happened minutes before the law student was brutally attacked by two patrollers in the Villa Luz neighborhood.
Salazar, who also witnessed what his friend suffered at the hands of the uniformed men until the moment of his death, said that they left “the Javier Ordonez with another friend to buy a bottle of liquor, as many Colombians do and as many Colombians like. That is not a crime ”.
“The three of us went to a park very close to Javier’s apartment, when we were approached by a motorized police patrol, by two policemen. There was an exchange of words with my friend Javier, to which I said ‘let’s go home to listen to music, let’s avoid inconveniences,’ “he added.
According to him, they began their return “walking very slowly towards Javier’s apartment. When we were already in the parking lot where Javier lives, the same motorized patrol comes to us from the back, from the back, and one of these policemen yells at Javier: “ This is not safe, if you do not go to be there ‘, to which Javier turns around and tells the police that what is his problem, what is wrong with him, and that is when without a word one of them shoots him with the taser gun ”.
Salazar, handcuffed and detained with the victim, expressed his helplessness to see how “the policemen never stopped, they hit him several times in the face and continued with the taser pistol, but the shocks were no longer made on his clothes, because he already had his shirt torn, they did it on his skin ”.
His testimony is heartbreaking about what happened during the transfer to the CAI of Villa Luz and when they arrived at that place where, he maintained, they continued to beat him.
“Inside that van, the torture of my friend Javier continues, they quickly transfer us to the CAI in Villa Luz. I get off by my own means, they push me, I enter the CAI and they push me towards the bottom of the CAI. When I see Javier, he was already very weak, with his head down, very handicapped, there they continue to beat him, push him, throw him on the floor and he was handcuffed, he was totally immobilized, he could do absolutely nothing and they throw it at my feet ”.
Despite his pleas, he says, the uniformed men “never helped him, they only approached him to verbally or physically attack him.”
And he saw how “many more policemen arrived, maybe four or five, I’m not sure how many, but there were several. They enter the CAI, they see my friend Javier on the floor, handcuffed; they see me against the wall, handcuffed; They see that they are hurting him and they are not helping him, ”he said.
With a mutual friend, who arrived shortly after, he managed to convince the patrols to transfer the victim to the Maria del Lago Hospital.
“When I feel Javier, I realize that he is totally pale, his eye is totally swollen, a part of his face is totally swollen, he has marks all over his body,” he said.
“All the way we patted him on the cheeks. I tried to open his eyes, I put my hand on his nose. My friend Juan David made him in the face, he said: ‘Javi, react. Javi, react ”. I did his leg, I did him in the stomach as if trying to warm him up to see if he would suddenly react, but he never opened his eyes, “he said.
“We arrived in the patrol at the María del Lago Clinic, I got off like crazy and we sat him in the wheelchair and this image will never be erased from my mind because when we try to seat him in the wheelchair he He stayed like that, he stayed like that (he gestures with his body shamelessly backwards), he stayed in that position with his eyes closed ”, he specified.
Between the tears, he described how the doctors confirmed his death: “A doctor comes out, she kneels, puts her hand to me and says: ‘I’m very sorry, nothing could be done because your friend has already arrived dead.’ You cannot describe what you feel at that moment. “
