Workers of the Judiciary of Córdoba experienced moments of tension while carrying out expert reports for a crime that occurred last Friday in the Villa Gran Parque neighborhood, in Córdoba Capital, and had to take refuge when neighbors fired a dozen shots while demanding Justice for the act.

Employee representatives filed their complaint because there were only a few police officers at the location and no Infantry personnel, trained for this type of situation, were present.

And he detailed: They appealed to their instinct, they cowered like little animals, listening to the whistle of the bullets. They went home without talking to a psychologist, doctor or psychiatrist to check if they were okay. Almost a week has passed and no superior or manager has contacted the technicians to see how they are doing”.
Meanwhile, delegate Ernesto Ortíz told Radio University: “More than 50 shots were fired. They had to drop to the ground because they had no security from the Córdoba Police, the Infantry Guard or any other security force.”
