In a crossfire they assassinate an escort of a candidate for Congress, in Tuluá - Cali - Colombia

The Comunes party denounced the murder of Luis Elver Caicedo, UNP bodyguard and member of the security scheme of the candidate for the House of Representatives, Jair Torres.

The crime occurred on the night of this Thursday, February 24, in Tuluá, during a shooting.

The community assures that everything would be an attack against the candidate for Congress, a version that was later discarded by the Valle Police.

“With pain, rage and indignation from the Comunes party we denounce the attack that comrade Jair Torres, candidate for the House of Representatives for the Valley, was subjected to,” said Luis Alberto Albán Urbano, political adviser of the Comunes party.

He added: “Fortunately the companion was unharmed, but in this incident the bodyguard Luis Caicedo Caicedo was killed. We denounce before the world the Colombian State and the government of President Iván Duque for their inability to guarantee the lives of Colombian citizens, in particular the members of our Comunes party.”

Meanwhile, Colonel Nelson Dabey Parrado Mora, commander of the Valle Police, explained that the events occurred at 8 p.m. in the Santa Cruz neighborhood of Tuluá, when the three escorts were outside a residence in which the candidate was at a private event.

“The victim was approached by five people who were on three motorcycles, who hit him with a firearm and later stole his endowment weapon,” adds the uniformed officer.

Faced with the complaint that this fact would be part of an attack against the candidate, the uniformed officer stated: “The protégé was never at risk according to the analysis, since this person was inside the residence. The hypotheses suggest that the fact would be related to the theft of the escort’s endowment weapon.

“In an articulated manner with the Attorney General’s Office, a specialized team was available to capture and prosecute those responsible for this act,” he concluded.
