entered our prison blocks in the presence of a <strong>de</strong>legate from the International Red Cross,<br />

public prosecutors from the police <strong>de</strong>partment only, since it was maintained that they<br />

had been unable to obtain the services of any civilian prosecutors. They were<br />

accompanied by officers from the police, the army and the navy, dressed in civilian<br />

clothes This is a known fact, since comments frorn war<strong>de</strong>rs and common prisoners<br />

confirm that these officers were known to thern. For more than two hours they ma<strong>de</strong> a<br />

thorough search of all our quarters, of the walls, roofs and ducts, etc. When this<br />

inspection was over, at our insistence, an official document was drafted and signed In<br />

the said document it is expressly admitted that there were no arms, tunnels 01' any<br />

evi<strong>de</strong>nce of p<strong>la</strong>ns to escape. It is also confirmed that everything was proceeding with<br />

absolute normality Furthermore, it was stated that the police could go into our blocks<br />

to cauy out the so-called "head count" without any problems.r"<br />
