29 fax with the names of some military officers allegedly involved, those same names had been received by journalists from Cáritas radio.”156 106. Likewise, Carmen Marina Arrom Suhurt stated that on January 19 they went to the Criminal Investigation Department and two policemen at the entrance told them that the Minister of the Interior, Julio César Fanego, had his brother in his Ybycuí ranch.157 She indicated that a journalist called her very early on Monday the 21st and told her that she had to go to “Criminal Investigations because a policeman told her that they had Juan there.”158 She pointed out that, when they went on Tuesday the 22nd, some journalists told them to ask for Juan Arrom's cell phone and why his SUV was full of mud.159 107. The Court recalls that, according to its jurisprudence, the statements of alleged victims cannot be evaluated in isolation but rather within the full evidence in the process, since they are useful to the extent that they can provide more information on the alleged violations and their consequences.160 In a case like this, given the absence of a context and contradictory positions regarding the events that occurred, it is necessary that what was indicated by the alleged victims coincide with other elements of evidence that allow the Court to use these statements to have more information about what happened. B.1.b Statements from persons who claim to have witnessed the moment the alleged victims were detained by state agents 108. Four residents of the area where Juan Arrom Suhurt and Anuncio Martí were allegedly detained stated that they had seen a lot of movement of cars on January 17, 2002, including some cars without license plates. Also, that at night there was a crowd of people in front of the offices of the Center of Judicial Investigations.161 109. The Court highlights that there are no direct testimonies claiming to have seen the detention of Juan Arrom Suhurt and Anuncio Martí Méndez. Only Luis Alfonso Resck Haiter claimed to have witnessed the arrest of a person, whom he did not identify.162 Likewise, Mr. Resck Haiter stated that the Director of the Center of Judicial Investigations, Javier Cazal, was present in the operation.163 110. Whether or not what the neighbors witnessed something happen on January 17 was questioned and put in doubt in the internal investigations. There is record of an operation carried out in the area on January 9, where two people were arrested.164 Likewise, one of the residents of the area stated that “the day or night that [Mr.] Resck might have witnessed something, a pilgrimage of people arrived” and he saw Mr. Resck Haiter gesticulating and speaking loudly.
