63 162. The case file contains three documents issued by DIVISE and DINCOTE agents concerning the circumstances of the detention of Gladys Espinoza and Rafael Salgado and the State established its version of what happened based on them (supra para. 147). Report No. 002-IC-DIVISE of April 17, 1993, issued by DIVISE officials, indicates that agents “proceeded to pursue [… Rafael Salgado and Gladys Espinoza,] and […] the vehicle […] collided with the motorcycle, [and] following strong resistance and the use of the respective weapons,” the agents were able to capture both of them. This report added that, “as a result of the violent collision of the said vehicles, the motorcyclist and his passenger suffered a catastrophic fall, which caused injuries to different parts of the body […].” 293 Attestation No. 108-D3-DINCOTE of May 15, 1993, and Report No. 259-DINTO-DINCOTE of June 3, 1993, both issued by the DINCOTE, ratify this description of the circumstances of the detention of Gladys Espinoza, and indicate the items seized at that time. 294 163. In this regard, the Court considers that the possible existence of a collision between the vehicle of the police agents with the motorcycle on which Gladys Espinoza was riding does not exclude that she was subsequently beaten by these agents. Regarding the injuries suffered by Gladys Espinoza, these DIVISE and DINCOTE reports only refer, in general, to “injuries to different parts of the body” resulting from “a catastrophic fall,” without specifying their nature or severity. 295 Consequently, the Court considers that the information contained in the said reports of the DIVISE and the DINCOTE does not disprove the facts alleged by the presumed victim. B.2.4. Medical and psychological certificates issued between 1993 and 2014 164. In order to establish the facts, the Court finds it relevant to assess the medical and/or psychological certificates issued with regard to the presumed victim between 1993 and 2014. 165. Regarding what happened during her detention, first, the Court takes into account the certificate issued on April 22, 1993, by forensic doctors of the Criminalistics Directorate of the Peruvian National Police, with the medical assessment made of Gladys Espinoza on April 18, 1993, a day after her detention. 296 This document identifies a series of injuries suffered by Gladys Espinoza on both arms and on her scalp, which are consistent with her account of her fall from the motorcycle and with the blow to her head before she was forced into a vehicle (supra para. 71). 166. In relation to her detention on the premises of the DIVISE and the DINCOTE, the case file contains the following medical and/or psychological reports and certificates issued in 1993 on examinations performed on Gladys Espinoza after the above-mentioned assessment of April 18 that year, which record various injuries: (i) the certificate issued on April 20, 1993, which records the medical examination performed on the presumed victim on April 19, 1993, by forensic doctors of the Institute of Forensic Medicine of Peru 297 (ii) the medical report issued on April 26, 1993, identified as Note No. 235-SE.HC.PNP.604000.93, which describes the medical examination performed on Gladys Espinoza by the Emergency Service of the Hospital of the 293 Cf.
