moment, they would rape her or kill her. She narrated that, later she was obliged to disembark
and walk to a pick-up truck with “a white and navy blue image on the side; the kind that doesn’t
have a roof at the back.” When she was in this vehicle, they hit her buttocks with something large
and hard, and “the blows covered the whole of [her] buttocks,” and, meanwhile, they were saying
“whine, bitch, whine!” She recounted that “the person who was hitting [her], put his hand into
[her] underwear, squeezed [her] buttocks and touched [her] anus” and that she covered herself
with her hands, but the police took her hands away and put their fingers in her vagina,
threatening to kill her and disappear her. She stated that, when the pick-up stopped, they put her
sweater over her head, ordered her to bend down, pushed and shoved her towards a bus “with
other police agents who [wore] a totally different [uniform], that was all black,” and they forced
her to climb into the bus. She recounted that, in this bus:
93. She recounted that “they took turns to do this and when they had finished, they invited
others, and they all did it again.” She stated that they took her to the back seat of the bus,
ordering her not to get up, to keep her head down on her knees, and hit her on the head and
back if she moved. She recalled that those on board the vehicle were piled one on top of the
other and that, during the journey, they were beaten every twenty minutes or so, “as if just for
amusement.” She indicated that she heard men and women moaning, pleading not to be raped.
She related that the journey took around three to four hours.
94. Claudia Hernández Martínez recounted that, on getting into the truck, she was thrown on a
pile of people. They asked her where she lived, and when she said that she was from Tepito, one
of the police agents shouted to the others: “hey, look, this bitch is from Tepito, let’s warm her
up,” following which they punched her on the nose and this made her nose bleed. She recalled
that one of the agents said: “we’ve got to give this bitch the wedgie,” and “began to pull [her]
panties”; on realizing that she was menstruating, he yelled to the others “look, this bitch is
bleeding, let’s dirty her a little more.” She reported that he then introduced his fingers “violently
and repeatedly in [her] vagina,” and this was repeated by five other agents, while others held her
down and took off her brassiere, licking her breasts and pulling her nipples. She recounted that
another agent tried again to put his hand in her pants, but could not because she “jammed
[herself] between [her] seat and the driver’s seat”; consequently, he beat her. She indicated that
the journey took around four hours, during which she was beaten and threatened with death and
disappearance. Moreover, the women were told that “if we had been at home making tortillas this
would not have happened to us; all the time, they made us feel guilty, to feel responsible for
what had occurred.”
95. Mariana Selvas Gómez indicated that, first, she was put into a pick-up where she was made
to lie face down. She explained that they piled in more people and that she “was underneath and
her body went numb” and she could not breath. As she was unable to move, they pulled her out
of the truck and stood her up and continued beating the back of her knees and buttocks. She
recounted that she was the last one to get into the truck and that they hit her with batons, they
kicked her, pushed her, punched her, insulted her and covered her face with her jacket. She
narrated that, when they made her get into the truck, “a police agent pushed [her] in with his
hand on [her] buttocks, put his hand between [her] legs and rubbed [her] on top of [her]
clothes,” he pinched her buttocks, her vagina and even put his fingers in her vagina, causing her
