The patrolman Harby Damián Rodríguez spoke in the middle of the trial that the Attorney General’s Office is bringing forward for the events that surrounded the death of Javier Ordóñez, during a procedure in the early morning hours where he helped subdue the man on a street in the town of Engativá .
The uniformed man spoke of the procedure and the moment in which the victim was transferred to CAI Villa Luz, as part of that was recorded in a video where it is seen when several electric shocks are applied with a ‘taser’ gun, despite the fact that the man pleads stop the punishment.
As for what happened within that CAI with Javier Ordóñez, Rodríguez confessed, according to CM & Noticias, that When he got there, he saw that his “partner Juan Camilo Lloreda” was beating him on several occasions.
“I observe that Juan Camilo Lloreda hit him with his feet approximately four times, on the stomach and ribs,” he said.
The patrolman assured, according to that outlet, that he could see the attacks because at that moment he entered the CAI bathroom, and that he tried to stop the beating: “I tell him not to hit him again and I leave the CAI.”
Those images of Javier Ordóñez lying on the floor with his hands handcuffed behind him were recorded on a video, and there a policeman is seen standing near him.
But the patrolman Rodríguez said that he had to leave there to return to the scene of the events, and affirmed, according to the news report, that only his partner Lloreda and the detainee remained at the CAI.
Witness said that a policeman beat Javier Ordóñez in the CAI
A young man who was with Ordóñez had also been transferred to that CAI, and who told the media that a policeman had “beaten” the man and that precisely for that reason they had to take him to a hospital.
The police officer Lloreda had already spoken about what happened in the CAI last month before the Prosecutor’s Office, and according to his version, he was only filling out some documents when he realized that Ordóñez was wrong.
“At the time we are completing the documentation, at 1:00 am, Mr. Javier Humberto Ordóñez says he feels bad, for this reason a police vehicle is requested to transfer him to the Partenón Clinic,” was what Lloreda assured.
However it may have been, one of the friends who helped take Ordóñez to the hospital said that “he was almost dead and full of bruises” on his body.
Five minutes after entering the clinic, the man said, “the doctor came out and told us: ‘He died.’ And about 15 minutes later he comes back and leaves and tells me: ‘He died from the blows’ ”.
This video of Ordóñez lying on the floor inside the CAI is one of the evidence with which they seek to demonstrate the responsibility of the policemen in his death.
