not recorded or if he was transferred to another place. Thus, the Court underscores that, in 2007, items belonging to Carlos Horacio were found in a safety deposit box at the 13th Brigade, while the State has not provided any explanation in this regard (supra para. 343). 360. Moreover, several individuals have asserted that they saw him leave the Palace of Justice walking with difficulty, either because they were present or because they identified him in a video (supra paras. 336 to 343). Even though the chronological order of the injuries found on his corpse is not known, the autopsies performed on Mr. Urán Rojas revealed injuries consistent with these observations. 361. The Court also recalls that, during the removal of the corpses, the State committed significant errors that have made it difficult to clarify what happened (supra paras. 145 to 150). In the case of Carlos Horacio Urán Rojas this is even more evident, because his body was washed before the corresponding autopsy, and the record of the removal of the corpse was not prepared in the place where he died. Rather, his body was moved to the patio of the Palace of Justice, and in the record of its removal from the Palace, as well as in the first autopsy, several of the injuries found on the body were omitted. On this point, Dr. Bacigalupo indicated that the “traces of smoke and charring post mortem in the lumbar region” described in the autopsy report reveal that “an attempt was made to destroy the evidence of what happened; thus the body was burned.” In this regard, he added that “the fire had not reached the area where the hostages were and the area they crossed in order to leave the Palace.” 555 In addition, the Truth Commission indicated with regard to the body of Mr. Urán Rojas and the bodies of a group of guerrillas that “the fact that […] they were washed […] may indicate the intention to erase evidence of acts related to possible summary executions.” 556 On these points, the Court emphasizes that the State has acknowledged its omissions in the clarification of what happened to Carlos Horacio Urán Rojas, as well as an inappropriate processing of the scene of the events (supra para. 355). 362. In relation to the evidence of the death of Carlos Horacio Urán Rojas inside the Palace of Justice, the Court emphasizes that this is contradictory (supra paras. 332 to 334). Consequently, the Court finds that it is insufficient to disprove all the other evidence indicating that Mr. Urán Rojas initially survived the taking and retaking of the Palace of Justice. In this regard, it is important to underline that, owing to the number of people who were in the bathroom at the time and the combat conditions in this place, it cannot be discounted that the deponents saw Carlos Horacio injured and assumed that he was dead, or that they confused him with another person. 363. When analyzing these indications, the Truth Commission determined that Mr. “Urán [Rojas] left the Palace of Justice alive in the custody of soldiers, with non-lethal injuries.” Subsequently, he was a victim of a shot “at point-blank or at close range (less than a meter).” “Inexplicably his corpse appeared in the patio of the first floor [of the Palace of Justice].” 557 364. Similarly, the Court considers that, based on all the said indications, it can be concluded that Carlos Horacio Urán Rojas was injured in the left leg inside the Palace of Justice, but left it alive in the custody of State agents and his exit alive was not recorded on the list of survivors drawn up by the State. Subsequently, when he was in a vulnerable situation owing to the other injuries, he was executed. His body was undressed, washed, and taken to the Institute of Forensic Medicine. 558 555 Autopsy report No. 3783-85 (evidence file, folio 15974), and Written notes by Carlos Bacigalupo (evidence file, folio 36342). 556 Report of the Truth Commission (evidence file, folios 245 and 246). 557 Cf.
