30 131. On November 30, 1994, Mr. Galindo Cárdenas asked the Human Rights Commission of the Constituent Congress to investigate the conduct of Peruvian Army Colonel Eduardo Negrón Montestruque, Head of the Military-Political Command of the city of Huánuco, Peruvian National Police Major Agustín Quezada Sánchez, Chief of JECOTE-Huánuco and the Huánuco Provincial Prosecutor, Dr. Ricardo Robles y Coz, for their “misconduct in the performance of their functions” in the police investigation to which he had voluntarily agreed to undergo and 93 for which he was detained for 31 days at the Army base located in Yánac-Huánuco. Mr. Galindo filed this complaint a second time by way of a January 19, 1995 brief addressed to the Chair of the Human Rights and 94 Pacification Commission of the Democratic Constituent Congress of Peru. 132. On December 13, 1994, Mr. Galindo Cárdenas filed a request with the Huánuco Provincial Prosecutor of First Instance, Ricardo M. Robles y Coz, asking for certified copes of the police-military investigation to which he was subjected and in which the Provincial Prosecutor himself participated. The investigation had been for the alleged crime of terrorism; Mr. Galindo Cárdenas had been detained on suspicion of the crime of terrorism, 95 and was released without being told “what the authorities’ decision had been in his case.” 133. In his request, Mr. Galindo also complained that: 1) he was never formally notified of the charge against him or of the reasons for his detention, which was done after the President of the Republic told the media about his case and his detention, even though he was still at liberty; 2) his detention was arbitrary both in terms of procedure and substance; it exceeded the time period allowed under the law as he was held for 31 days but never brought before a competent judge; 3) the fact that he was a serving magistrate on the Huánuco Superior Court was not respected, as required under Article 191 of the Organic Law of the Judiciary; 4) he was held in confinement on a military base where he initially suffered psychological torture and isolation; 5) information was circulated to the effect that he had applied for the Repentance Law, which was false and tendentious; 6) the deposition he gave “in the presence of members of DINCOTE-LIMA who were investigating [his] case at Yanac military base” was replaced and “the findings misrepresented to portray [him] as having repented in a statement 96 [he] never made; [he] never gave in to their demands or the demands of the police and military.” 134. On January 16, 1995, a brief from Mr. Luis Antonio Galindo Cárdenas was received at the Office of the Attorney General of the Nation. It was addressed to the Chair of the Board of Supreme Prosecutors of the Public Prosecutor’s Office and complained of the irregularities denounced on December 13, 1994, against Provincial Prosecutor Ricardo M. Robles y Coz; the complaints were also directed at the Chief Superior Prosecutor of Huánuco, Dr. Carlos Shultz Vela. The brief also stated that Mr. Galindo had not yet been provided with the copies he had requested of the pertinent decisions and had not received a reply to his formal request. He again requested that he be given personal guarantees, on the grounds that: Since being released and in response to the repeated statements I made on television and in the press to clarify my legal situation so as to protect my honor and dignity, as I was compelled to do, I have learned that the head of the Huánuco military-political command and officials at the Public Prosecutor’s Office who had a hand in the investigation to which I was subjected have made public statements in the city of Huánuco to 97 the effect that they would arrest me again on the same grounds. Their attitudes were menacing … . 93 Annex 21. Mr. Luis Antonio Galindo Cárdenas’ brief to the members of the Human Rights Commission of the Democratic Constituent Congress, dated November 30, 1994.
