The Attorney General’s Office prosecuted Gustavo Adolfo Díaz Serrano, for his alleged responsibility in facts that took place on December 31, 2023 in El Espinal (Tolima) in which a man was murdered, and a 15-year-old girl was injured.
A prosecutor belonging to the so-called Unidad de Vida of the Sectional Office in Bolivar charged him with homicide, attempted homicide, and illegal manufacture, trafficking and possession of firearms, parts or ammunition; all aggravated.
He did not plead guilty to the charges, and a judge imposed a prison sentence.
The incident took place in Saucedal neighborhood when Díaz Serrano allegedly handed the firearm over to his brother Fabián Andrés Caleño Díaz, who was arrested for the same facts last month, so that he could attack the victim. The man died on the scene and a 15-year-old girl was injured.
After committing the crime, the two alleged attackers fled on a motorcycle. The situation was unleashed by a personal problem with the victim.
