Corte Suprema ordena investigar amenazas a testigos del caso Carlos Mattos

0:01 At the WU, Colonel Daniel' s report brings us this Monday report. Welcome, good morning, July. This is the report Colonel The case of corrupt businessman Carlos Matos Barrero has a development. The Supreme Court asks to investigate whether he was behind the threats to two witnesses in his trial. Allegedly threatened are Dagoberto Rodríguez, Niño, a senior officer of one of the judges who received silver from Matus, and Edwin Fabián Macías Castañeda, who acted as contacts between Matos and one of the judges bought. The investigation order of the highest ordinary court states that these two witnesses began receiving threats as soon as possible.

0:53 It was known that they were willing to testify about the way Matos had bought from one of the judges who decided in his favor. For this reason, the Court ordered that copies be certified to the prosecutor' s office to investigate these threatening quotation marks of which they were victims when they initiated dialogues with the investigating lens to collaborate with the administration of justice and testify against the sentenced here, Judge Reinaldo Huertas, and which, it was said, came from Carlos José Matos Barrero. So much for the Supreme Court quote. The decision of the Supreme Court of Justice is in the cassation sentence that orders the sentence to nine years in prison of Judge Reinaldo Huertas, who was the tip of the ball to discover the entire criminal operation of Carlos Matos. Nearly eight years ago he wrote a column called on wheels, which began with striking information to the dealer to cars that sell more vehicles. In western Bogotá, a judge of the Republic arrived with a tula full of cash to buy a car. The purchase took place a week after that judge, Reinaldo Huertas, ordered a precautionary measure in favor of Carlos Matos, saying he was the only one authorized to sell cars and Honda and in Colombia. All this was happening in the middle of a multimillion dollar lawsuit between Matos and the Korean multinational. The judge had solved everything at an unusual speed. On March 15, Mato filed his lawsuit

2:25 against Hyundai. The 18th admitted it. On April 6, he ordered the measure, notified it on April 11, and on April 12, he went to buy his mass with talk. In cash, when he was investigating the decision quickly, Judge Huertas refused to talk to me, but after the column was published, he explained here in the wu that the silver came from his savings in various currencies including two pounds sterling. Official income never matched the savings. The sentence of cassation issued by the Criminal Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justo states in the last instance that Huertas is guilty of bribery because he received between one thousand and one thousand two hundred million pesos together. He is also held responsible for the offences of unlawful use in communications networks and abusive access by a computer system, because the judge participated in the electronic alteration of the distribution so that Matos' case could reach his office. The judgement closes several aspects of the investigation, but two remain pending, perhaps remaining forever. First, the participation of Alfonso Matos and Jorge Matos, brother of the condemned Carlos Matos, in a meeting in Bucaramanga with the judicial employee of Goberto Rodríguez, where he would inform them of the progress of the lawsuit bought in the Sixth Civil Court of the Circuit of Bogotá. There are the landing records of Mr Matos

3:57 ' private jet in Bucaramanga. All sorts of evidence about that meeting, but nothing happened to that evidence. Second, the contract to pay a successful commission by Carlos Matos to Néstor Humberto Martínez' s law firm for a precautionary measure is requested by another judge, who also received severance money. Néstor Humberto Martínez was the Attorney General of the Nation when the scandal broke out. When I published that first column I was talking about, the prosecution quickly issued a statement saying Comillas. Neither Dr Néstor Humberto Martínez nor the law firm to which he was linked prior to his position as Attorney General of the Nation, have had legal proceedings before the Circuit Court of Bogotá, which is alluded to in the Sierra Comillas column. What the statement did not say is that Néstor Humberto Martínez and his signature did act before another court, that of Judge Ligia del Carmen Hernández, who admitted having received silver of severance after the ruling and also did not mention the statement that they had agreed on a successful commission that could reach four five million dollars if the office granted him the precautionary measure that the judge actually granted him. Those two aspects of the murder case should also be investigated.
