A prison guard who was arrested over the alleged jail break of Matamba claims that the drug lord disappeared to prevent him from confirming military involvement in drug trafficking.
According to the prosecution, Juan Larinson Castro, a.k.a. Matamba, escaped from Bogotas La Picota prison on March 18 while waiting to be extradited to the United States.
The prosecution announced on March 23 that it had arrested prison guard Milton Liberado Jimenez for allegedly helping the drug lord escape.
Prosecution claim contradicts evidence
According to the prosecution, Jimenez opened two internal doors open between 00:56AM and 1:03AM on March 18, and distracted an assistant guard to allow Matamba to walk out of prison.
