translated from Spanish: Carabineros are left with pre-trial detention for alleged assembly during state of emergency

The First Guarantee Court of Santiago decreed pre-trial detention for the defendants three carabineros pointed out to lie about a procedure carried out during the State of Emergency in the commune of Pudahuel, where two minors were injured old. On October 20, at the intersection of Claudio Arrau streets with Lieutenant Cruz of the commune, a Carabineros operation was held, where a car was sought to inspect a car where people suspected of having participated in a robbery were transferred. In the middle of the procedure there was a shooting that left two children under the age of 9 and 10 injured. After the fact, the driver of the vehicle, charged with the gunshots, was arrested. The fact was opened an investigation by the IDP in which the uniformed police version was denied. Following a review of the security cameras, the civilian police found that the version did not match that indicated by Carabineros, who noted that the driver had tried to assault them. It was evident that contrary to this, the driver did not fire. According to Radio bío Bío, after these conclusions a sub-lieutenant from the 55th police station of Pudahuel was arrested, along with two corporals of the 25th Maipú Police Station, who were transferred to the Human Rights Brigade of the IDP. This Saturday, they were formalized as perpetrators of crimes of obstruction of investigation, forgery of public instrument and thwarted homicide. The 1st Guarantee Court of Santiago decreed the pre-trial detention of the three and established a 60-day investigation period.
