Some people who have family members at the headquarters of Legal Medicine in the city of Santa Marta, they have made public their dissatisfaction because apparently the refrigerators where the bodies are kept to prevent them from decomposing are damaged.
Some of the bodies have not been claimed by their relatives, considering that the respective procedure must be done so they request that the processes be accelerated taking into account that the corpses are decomposing.
Faced with this situation, a group of people who have a relative in the place, blocked the road in the Ziruma sector, due to the lack of response by Forensic Medicine on the corpse of a young man, which would be delivered between two and three months.

However, as of the date of this publication, Medicina Legal no ha emitido ningún pronunciamiento sobre la situación que estarían viviendo algunas personas.
