The UDYCO ratifies the follow -ups to the former Civil Guard anti -drug head

Within the framework of this investigation, and with the mood of knocking it down, Oliva and Fuentes twice denounced the Group of the Drug and Organized Crime Unit (UDYCO) of the National Police that discovered them and transferred the proceedings to Internal Affairs of the Civil Guardaccusing them of falsifying the follow -ups. The first complaint was in a court in Cádiz, but they withdrew it. The second filed it in Madrid and was filed, but they turned to the Provincial Court, which made a partial estimate. Thus, the chief inspector of the police responsible for the investigation declared a complaint on January 22. According to the complaint, eight of the follow -ups were false and other “inconsequential.” The expert from the party that Oliva commissioned and attached to the complaint said.

In his statement before the judge and in a letter subsequently submitted to the magistrate so that the truth of the veracity of The surveillance To the Ariza clan, the chief inspector of the Police was refuting, one by one, the accusations of having included in his “false” follow -up reports and, according to sources close to the Prosecutor’s Office, his arguments were “solids dismantling the complaint” and “They convinced” the representative of the Public Ministry, who is inclined to ask for the dismissal of the cause.

The prosecutor even requested that the eight witnesses who were summoned on Wednesday did not declare, not Consider it necessarybut the judge preferred to listen to them.

The complainants contributed, for example, photographs of David Tomás Verdejo Ariza, which the police pointed out as one of the capos of the clan and personal friend of Lieutenant Fuentes. They placed Ariza in Lisbon with his family, so They could not have followed simultaneously in the province of Cádiz. It has an explanation: Lisbon photos were taken, as explained by the chief inspector of the UDYCO Central, at 23:43 on November 28, 2019, while the follow -up to David Bermejo when he returned from a “nursery” (where the drug is saved) “around 12:30 hours.” That is, then he could go to Lisbon and be in the Portuguese capital since mid -afternoon, quite before 23:43.

During the follow -ups to the Ariza clan, the agents of The UDYCO They found that there was a link between the drug traffickers and the civil guards, which is why the Civil Guard Internal Affairs Unit was transferred. Oliva, allegedly, got a lieutenant of this unit, with the promise of taking him to Ocon, where much more money was charged for the accessories, he revealed that he was being investigated. This is the reason why Oliva, Fuentes and the other lieutenant will be judged accused of revelation of secrets and bribery.

Regarding another of the denounced surveillances, the Chief Inspector of the UDYCO points out that “the complaint states that Lieutenant Colonel (Oliva) and Cape Sevilla did not attend a barbecue on the Finca del Jaleo de David Ariza on 02-29-2020 ». As proof they contribute a «WhatsApp screenshot» to prove that the end was on the same afternoon in Barbate ». The statement and the report contributed to the judge argues that “if Cabo Sevilla was that afternoon (17 hours) of service in Barbate, the investigators state that it would not take more than 45 minutes to reach the Finca del Jaleo for the night barbecue.” Regarding Oliva, he asserts that from his home “to Bologna takes approximately half an hour to attend the night barbecue.” He adds that “it is significant that Oliva and Cabo Sevilla do not provide positioning of their phones of that night (barbecue) and if of the afternoon or the next day (March 1).”

The Narcos

The surveillances also placed Oliva and Fuentes staying, with their respective families, in the tourist apartments El Jaleo -Propue of the Ariza clan- in July and August of 2020. The Civil Guard officers pointed out in their complaint Do not appear in the registration Of those apartments, before what the UDyco of the National Police asserts that “it is a usual practice if you do not want any record or a trace of that fact, since David Verdejo’s friendship with Lieutenant Fuentes was quite a lot uncomfortable against third parties ». Regarding another of the surveillance questioned, the UDYCO Central does recognize an “involuntary error” in the transcription of the hours, “since the facts occur around 23:45 hours and not at 12:45 am, as indicated in the aforementioned written ».

“Discredit the report”

The UDYCO notes that Oliva and Fuentes’s intention is “trying to discredit, without any basis, the 9355 report and thereby prevent its use in the procedure for revelation of secrets and bribery that is instructed against the complainants.” The chief inspector adds that “there are more than enough indications” of the relationship between the guards and the Ariza clan “endorsed by Objective tests And not for speculation as done otherwise, not only because of the surveillance and follow -ups but for the content of the telephone of Lieutenant Fuentes, intervened and discharged by the Civil Guard itself where conversations, instructions and illegal activities are collected ».

The letter highlights «how the defense of the complainants never asked the judicial authority, from the first moment that they had access to the judicial procedure, Geolocation and location of BTS antennas of their official and individual phones to demonstrate their real and exact location of the days of the surveillance that have been questioned by themselves and to be able to contribute it to the cause ».

The UDYCO chief inspector also asked the judge, in the same letter, the dismissalbut the magistrate denied him to be able to listen to the eight police officers cited on Wednesday as witnesses.
