Regarding the doubts that we receive from our readers about what can and cannot be done during the holiday bridge, we consulted with the Secretary of the Government of Antioquia, Luis Fernando Suárez, who answered the questions asked:

Question: “Does the curfew also apply to residential units? Many people think that by living in a closed unit they do not have to comply with the rules and they believe that they live in an independent republic ”.

Reply: “In principle, yes. But if it is a closed unit and is part of a horizontal property regime, the Police will not enter the playground, swimming pool or meeting point of the common area. The most important thing is to be aware of the importance of caring for children. If a child goes out in a unit, apartment by apartment to trick or treating, they will probably be infected and they will do it with their relatives ”.

Question: “Can minors travel during the day, on the weekend, with their parents? Will there be mobility restrictions between municipalities?”

Reply: “Displacements between municipalities, in unrestricted hours, can be done. If you go with a minor, it is possible that if there is a police checkpoint they will stop you and require it because you are with minors on public roads, which is prohibited, even if you are in the company of your parents. family. They have asked us: I have a farm and I am going with my children. I shouldn’t do it, that’s the recommendation. “

Question: “I have a trip to Quindío with a hotel reservation and I am traveling with my minor daughter. Can I travel presenting the OK? Unable to cancel the reservation ”. “Can I travel from Medellín to Bogotá on Sunday?”

Reply: “The same happens with mobility in departments. If you go with minors, at the time when there is a restriction, you may be stopped at a checkpoint and fined. If you wear the OK from the hotel it is possible that the Police will let him pass but he has the risk of being fined ”.

Question: “What about flights scheduled at times within the adult curfew? Will they let them travel? For example, those who arrive on flights at 11:30 pm, what? ”.

Reply: “If a person arrives on a flight during restricted hours, he can present or show that he is coming from a national or international flight and that may be enough for the public force to let him pass.”

Question: “If my workday starts at 6:00 am, can’t I go to work? Or should they give me special permission? “

Reply: “In the decree there are exceptions for people who must work during restricted hours, as long as they prove with an employment letter or card that they were based on their work. They are excepted in the norm ”.

This is the complete decree:

Police operations to enforce restrictions

The Police, in coordination with the Government of Antioquia and the municipal authorities, will be watching over the safety of children and adolescents on this festive bridge.

There will be a device of 5,042 troops that will be located in the churches, main parks, holy fields and in the main road axes, in order to sensitize citizens to abide by biosecurity measures, due to the increase in cases of covid- 19.

It should be noted that there will be constant support from the Police Cyber ​​Center, which will carry out cyber-patrol work, in order to identify in a timely manner possible calls in open sources, most of which are made through closed groups on social networks or services instant messengers, who apparently plan clandestine gatherings, rituals and celebrations.

The Police extend an invitation to all parents to take care of their children in these Halloween parties, where satanic rituals and psychoactive substances in sweets are intensified, a modality widely used by criminals.
