El Universal carries today an article which shows that the evidence used to jail the Guevara brothers is all based on anonymous tips received by the police over the phone. This information coincides with that published by Patricia Poleo in El Nuevo Pais and another paper, which you can find here and here. The second Poleo link shows the actual documents from the police showing that they really know very little about the case. Sadly, they show a “map” found in the office of Juan Carlos Sanchez, who was killed by the police, which supposedly “proves” that he was involved in the case. In reality, the map does not include either the location of where Anderson was before the bomb, or that of the bomb, so it is incredible they want to relate it to the case.
The truth is that the Anderson case is as far from being resolved as it was a couple of weeks ago. It was only Thursday that the police mentioned they were after the people that published the obituary published here two weeks ago and there is evidence that murdered lawyer Antonio Lopez Castillo had been threatened by the same police forced that killed him. He had reportedly gone to the prosecutor’s office a few months ago to denounce some officers for extortion and following him. Thus, the “solved case” appears to be stuck in a dead end. Unfortunately, two people are dead and others have suffered in the rush to find the guilty, which we all want identified.
By the way, that last link is to a fairly new site Noticiero Digital, which scans things from newspapers that do not have website such as El Nuevo Pais or Las Verdades de Miguel, as well as links to articles in El Nacional which require a subscription. All articles have a discussion if you register. For those that speak Spanish, I recommend it as a good new source of information.
