Apparently, Cheremos Carrasquel paid $240,000, including vehicles and troops, to obtain this precautionary measure, according to investigations.
The accusation. The Public Ministry accused Cheremos Carrasquel for the crimes of terrorism, association and illicit trafficking of weapons of war. This accusation was debated on January 9 before the 4th Antiterrorist Court where its head, Márquez García, dismissed the crime of terrorism, modified it for concealment in the crime of terrorism and ordered to open a trial in freedom. The Public Ministry did not appeal the precautionary measure agreed by Márquez in favor of Cheremos Carrasquel, explained a judicial source.
