the survivors considered “special” by the armed forces were taken to the second floor of the Casa del Florero. 123 Several of them were transferred to military facilities, including the Cavalry School of the Colombian National Army (hereinafter “the Cavalry School”) and the “General Ricardo Charry Solano” Intelligence and Counter-intelligence Battalion (BINCI) (hereinafter “Charry Solano Battalion”). 124 Once they had been detained, “some of them [were] tortured and then disappeared.” 125 The determination of whether the presumed victims in this case are among this group of rescued individuals will be made in the corresponding chapters. 104. There is no certainty about the number of people who died during the events. The Institute of Forensic Medicine received 94 corpses from the Palace of Justice. 126 However, the Report of the Truth Commission indicates that “the problems that arose during the identification process give rise to serious doubts about the identity of some of them, and the irregularities, particularly in the case of the charred remains, could suggest the existence of a greater number of deceased.” 127 In addition, according to the evidence in the case file, lists prepared by State personnel recorded between 159 and 325 survivors. 128 105. Owing to the way in which the armed forces carried out the operation to take back the Palace of Justice, the Council of State, in proceedings instituted by the presumed victims in 123 Cf.

Report of the Truth Commission (evidence file, folios 202 to 207, 214, 247 and 248). 128 In this regard, the Court notes that there are different lists that record different numbers of survivors. A list attached to the Report of the Special Court records 244 survivors, while the text of the report indicates that 215 individuals survived. In addition, on the “List of Persons Liberated from the Palace of Justice,” found during a judicial inspection of the B-2 of the 13th Brigade, 325 persons are recorded, and the Report of the AZ records 159 persons. Lastly, the report of the National Police lists 207 survivors. Cf.
