Migration Colombia did not explain what had happened, however it rejected the fact and began an “investigation in accordance with the Disciplinary Law.” In networks they criticize the reaction and ask “is this how they treat tourists?”
Colombian News.
This Thursday, through social networks, an unfortunate and reprehensible episode that took place at the El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá was known. In said air terminal, an immigration official was captured when he kicked, pushed and threatened several travelers.
The video that was released was recorded by a woman who was also at the airport.
“What is this lack of respect”, “why do you hit him sir”, “what is your name”, the woman repeated while the official seemed defiant and obfuscated.
She continued making the recording and he also tried to attack her.
“Don’t record me,” the Colombian Migration employee repeated while the woman replied “he’s going to hit me, he’s going to hit me.”
“Madam calm down”
In the midst of the event, another immigration authority official also appears who intervenes to prevent travelers from recording the behavior of her partner.
She stands in front of the woman and with one of her hands covers the cell phone camera, what is striking is that she constantly repeats “ma’am, calm down”, even knowing that the behavior of the person recording was one of complete tranquility, respect and serenity.
Migration Colombia pronounced
There is no clarity about who the man they ended up attacking was, nor is it really known why the episode happened, whether he was a Colombian citizen, a foreigner, a tourist, or if he had any problem with the papers to enter the country.
The man who was attacked
The truth is that from Colombia Migration they spoke briefly and short about what happened.

It was through their social networks where with a short message they rejected the official’s aggression.
- “Colombian Migration rejects the behavior of one of its officials at El Dorado Airport and emphasizes that this is not allowed under any circumstances. The investigation is initiated in accordance with the Disciplinary Law.”
