31 […] at 5:30 in the morning approximately […] my mom woke up my dad and told him that there were people outside, that she was hearing noise. […] my mom [went out to the room] when the door exploded […] my mom[, injured,] fell to the floor […] due to [the explosion] mi dad stood up and shouted that they had killed her, trying to help her […]. At this moment members in uniforms came in […] and threw him on the floor. They picked us up and took us to the part of the room near the dining room and put us on the floor along with my mom. After that I hear[d] how […] they were beating at my dad […] and threatening him and they were telling him to say that “yes he was”[…,] that he should tell them “how much they are, where they are from” and they were beating him. And I could hear how he was complaining and imploring them not to hit him that he did not know anything and many times […] they threatened him that if he would not talk they would kill his family and he was imploring them not to involve his family, that if they wanted that could they do anything to him, but not to his family neither to his children [nor] his spouse. […] There was a moment when everything remained silent, […] like 5-10 minutes like that in silence, then […] I heard again that they were telling him that if he wouldn’t talk they would kill him, then I heard two gunshots, […] only two and it stopped, and he shouted complaining for the pain. This was the last thing we heard from my dad in that moment. […] After I found out from the neighbors in the front part and talking […] with my brother, that [my father was] taken to the outside part of the house to a car which was parked in the outside part. They had taken him out with white shorts with a cover on the head and that later they put him again […] into one of these trucks that the militaries have; […] they say that they put him in and after a while they took him out and they carried him in the house again and then they heard gunshots, because the neighbors also heard the gunshots […]. Alicia Rodríguez Villegas: we were sleeping when they came in. [We woke up] when we heard the explosion of the bomb in the door […]. I was with my daughter aside in the other bedroom. [My daughter saw the facts] because […] she was under the bed and since her bedroom has no door she saw when they shot him […] she tells me “mom they shot two times at Wilmer but I didn’t hear the gunshots” […]. [When the militaries] took us out, they put [us] in the military truck with the eyes blindfolded and then we did not see anything else […]. We came back the truck took us around and they took us out and they put us against the wall in a house on the corner and then to those who had already brought the dead man and they told us we could enter our rooms. Teresa María Susana Cedeño Paz: […] We woke up because of the explosion of a bomb. We heard it as a sound of a gas tank […,] I was very scared[,…] when I leant out of the window […] – because I was […] the one who could get up because my husband could not get up – [I saw that] they were a lot of militaries and [that] they had put the bomb. [After there was] an explosion [and … militaries] came in my house [around] 5:30 in the morning. [The militaries] entered by the door where […] they had put the bomb [and] came in [saying] that they were looking for a certain Luis Mejía and they were telling [my partner]: “Are you Luis Mejía?” and he said: “No, I am Miguel Caicedo, I am not Luis Mejía”. And they were beating him, beating him and beating him. [One military] told him: “But if you are lame it must be because you are stealing, killing”. [My partner] told him: “No, I came from Chone, I’ve just been here nine months. I came for the problem with my leg. They operated me in the hospital and I don’t know anything about what you are asking me.” [Miguel] could not stand up [nor put up resistance; moreover, there were no arms in the house,] only […] knifes […] to cook. […] They continued to beat him and they brought me to the room where my kids were and I was listening clearly when they were putting [electric] current on him and he was saying: “Don’t put current on me, leave me alone” […]. One of my son came out […] to see his father’ shout [and] as a result of the blows they were giving him […] he fell on the floor and then [Miguel] said that if they were to kill his wife and his son, that they kill him. He was [also] saying that [… he would] change [his] life […] for ours […] Then they took us out of the house and they brought us nearby in another house and there they left us [for a limited time] so that we would not listen [but we could still listen] how they were beating him[.] Then they took him up and brought him to the patio – because when we heard the gunshot they were coming from the patio. […] We heard two gunshots [and] then nothing more afterwards […]. Then some dump truck full of militaries came and […] they brought us in the front […] like at one block [to] a school. They put us [against] the wall, […] with the hands behind […], we could not talk. […] From there I could see that four militaries were carrying [him], two by the hands and two by the feet and then they shook him like this and they threw him to the bucket. [In the patio there were traces of blood.] 107. The said testimonies cannot be assessed separately since they were given by family members of the alleged victims (supra paras. 40). Therefore, even though these family members
