Suspect filmed shooting at police during university riots reportedly freed, whereabouts unknown

A suspect identified as 'Alias Cuervo,' who was allegedly captured on video firing at police during riots at the University of Antioquia, has reportedly been released and his current location is unknown, sparking outrage from local officials. Councilwoman Claudia Carrasquilla publicly questioned the judicial process, stating, "It's the last straw! Alias El Cuervo, the same one who was recorded shooting at the police during the disturbances at the University of Antioquia, was released and today no one knows where he is." The 27-year-old was initially arrested by the National Police and the Attorney General's Office in Medellín. Authorities had claimed that material linked to the ELN rebel group was found in a residence associated with 'Alias Cuervo.' The arrest followed violent incidents on June 3rd, during which a police officer was allegedly shot. Carrasquilla criticized the situation, adding, "Now they try to sell Medellín the story of a supposed forced disappearance, but the reality is that there are records of the actions taken by the authorities to locate him, including contacts with family, lawyers, and known places of residence." She further lamented, "While our police officers are attacked, the violent ones go free. While the Public Force risks their lives to capture them, others end up facilitating their path to evade justice." The councilwoman posed a series of questions to the public: "Citizens have the right to ask: who responded for this decision? Why was a person captured after appearing shooting at the police set free? Where is Alias El Cuervo?" The mayor's office had initially announced the capture of two individuals responsible for the violence at the university, labeling them as "terrorists" rather than student leaders.
