The Attorney General informed UCO that he had changed his mobile phone at the time of registration and said, “They were cooperators.”
The first official of the Civil Guard Central Operations Unit (UCO), who testified at the trial, was present at the prosecutor’s office last October and explained that Alvaro García Ortiz had already warned him that he had recently changed his phone. “I heard you changed your phone. I don’t remember the exact date, but I only had the phone for a short period of time.” The investigator added that both the attorney general and prosecutors’ office staff were “cooperators” during the process.
Both the state attorney’s office and the public prosecutor’s office are trying to prove that the search ordered on Ángel Hurtado was excessive and that information was collected from his computer, phone and email in a disproportionate manner.
They copied content from phones, emails, and hard drives where copies of desktop computers had previously been made. “We had a copy of that computer. It had only recently been modified. A complete copy of the hard drive was made.” That copy “was returned to the prosecutor’s office,” he added.
