Ivan Silva and Carla Verdugo were arrested in April, 2012 transporting a fire extinguisher filled with black powder and two canisters of camping gas, plus a homemade fuse. After spending long months in preventive prison, the compa\u00f1eros <\/em>are currently on nighttime house arrest.<\/p>\n

\n

On June 3, 2013, a trial began exercised under the disastrous anti-terrorist law, accusing them of “attempted placement of terrorist explosive device.” The prosecution dealt brutally with Ivan and his step-sister Carla, because she is a romantic partner of the compa\u00f1ero <\/em>Juan Aliste, a subversive prisoner in the Security Case.<\/p>\n

Today, June 10, the closing allegations were made by the prosecution, the ministry of the interior and the defense, after a week of oral trial.<\/p>\n

At 12 pm the judges of the prison’s Sixth Oral Court delivered the verdict against both compa\u00f1eros:<\/em><\/p>\n

Ivan Silva:<\/strong> Guilty of transportation of explosive (under the arms control law)<\/p>\n

Carla Verdugo<\/strong>: Guilty of transporting an “activation element” (under the arms control law)<\/p>\n

The\u00a0 change of classification that the judges made in rejecting the use of the anti-terrorist law directly affects the pretentions for imprisonment that the prosecution is proposing. So under the arms control law it is possible that the compa\u00f1eros <\/em>could opt for “Surveilled Freedom” (like compa\u00f1ero <\/em>Luciano has) or even completing the sentence with the time in preventive prison. Even so, it is impossible to trust in the legal traps.<\/p>\n

Faced with this situation, the prosecution insisted on asking for 5 years of prison for Ivan and 5 years and 1 day for Carla. The acting inquisitors based this on the presentiary report made by the prison guards where they did not recommend “surveilled freedom” for the accused.<\/p>\n

For their part, the defense asked that the sentence be 541 days for each of the accused, to be fulfilled in the street.<\/p>\n

Upon exiting, the little prosecutor H\u00e9ctor Barros, disappointed by the anti-terrorist law not being applied, stated to the press: “We have maintained that the legal qualification that corresponds in this case is that of a terrorist conduct and we have set this out in the trial since the beginning, every time we maintained, and for the common people, I imagine, that going out at night, at 3 am, carrying an explosive device, is not an ordinary conduct (…) It was effectively established that the accused transported explosive devices, in this case a bomb (…) we could establish with technical expertise and the witnesses that they on this day and at this time were on their way to plant it.”<\/p>\n

The defense lawyer, Francisco Alvarado, said with respect to the prosecutor’s anti-terrorist petitions, “stubbornly continuing to try to demonstrate that there is terrorism in Chile when there is not.”<\/p>\n

On Saturday, June 15 at 12:30 pm. Building C. Level 7. The sentence will be read against the compa\u00f1erxs <\/em>where they will deliver the grounds for considering them guilty and also the sentence they will receive.<\/p>\n

It is expected that the prosecution will ask for the annulment of the sentence, seeking and insisting on the application of the anti-terrorist law.<\/p>\n

End to the anti-terrorist law
\nend to all laws<\/strong><\/p>\n

Guilty of transporting conviction, dignity and rebellion:
\nSolidarity with compa\u00f1era <\/em>Carla Verdugo and compa\u00f1ero <\/em>Iv\u00e1n Silva.
