“Carlos García Juliá he fired six shots with his Star Super model to which he had placed a 9 Parabellum cannon. The shooting of this young man whom the parish priest of San Ginés defined in the summary pages of the Atocha case as “normal, jovial, affectionate and well connected with the serious and honorable youth of the neighborhood, with exemplary religious and moral life”. they caused the death, according to the opinion of the autopsy and the ballistic analysis, of Javier Sauquillo and Serafín Holgado “. This was how the journalist José Martí Gómez described in the pages of La Vanguardia on September 20, 1984, one of the authors of the killing of Atocha of January 24, 1977, which has now been arrested in Brazil after fleeing Spain, using different identities to outwit the Spanish justice.
About García Juliá, who was 24 years old when he shot to kill in the law office of Atocha street in Madrid, weighed an arrest warrant by the National Court since he got a prison permit in 1992. Then, he decided to leave Spain and he lost track until he was arrested in Bolivia for drug trafficking. But he managed to escape from prison and the track was already lost.
This is how the Atocha events occurred chronologically:
– After 10 and a half at night, three right-wing gunmen enter face uncovered in a labor law firm located at number 55 in the Madrid street of Atocha. Apparently, they were looking for the person in charge of the then illegal transport union of Comisiones Obreras (CCOO), Joaquín Navarro, who had left the office a short time before.
When they did not find him, they decided to kill those who were there at that moment. Five people are killed. They started firing at the administrative Angel Rodriguez Leal, who died on the spot, and then gathered and strafed the other eight people who were on the floor – seven lawyers and a law student – all linked to the Communist Party and CCOO. Luis Javier Benavides and Enrique Valdevira died on the spot, while Francisco Javier Sauquillo and student Serafin Holgado died hours later at the hospital. Four people were seriously injured, but managed to survive: Dolores (Lola) González Ruiz – married to Sauquillo – Miguel Sarabia, Alejandro Ruiz-Huerta and Luis Ramos Pardo.
– March 12, 1977.-The perpetrators of the attack are arrested: Carlos García Juliá, José Fernández Cerrá and Fernando Lerdo de Tejada, members of the self-proclaimed Comando Hugo Sosa, linked to the Anticommunist Apostolic Alliance; as well as the then provincial secretary of the vertical transport union of Madrid, Francisco Albalejo. But there are four others involved more.

THE National High Court in Madrid has formally requested the extradition of Carlos Garcia Julia, one of the Atocha killers.
Neo-fascist Garcia Julia received a 193-year prison sentence which he served in Castilla y Leon for his part in slaughtering five lawyers and seriously injuring three others in their offices in January 1977.
In September 1991 he was allowed out on probation and three months later given permission to leave the country to work in Asuncion (Paraguay) on condition that he reported each month to the Spanish embassy.
Garcia Julia failed to comply and when the Spanish authorities learned of his arrest in Bolivia in 1996 on drugs charges, the courts revoked probation and requested his extradition.
By this time he had disappeared again after being granted a temporary release from the Bolivia gaol, finally surfacing in Brazil via Chile, Argentina and Venezuela.
An Interpol detention order finally got results and Garcia Julia, by then working as an Uber driver and known as Genaro Antonio Materan, was taken into custody.
Once extradited and having broken probation, he must now serve the remaining 3,855 days of his sentence.

A advogada argentina Laura Marcela Casuso, de 54 anos, que defendia o narcotraficante brasileiro Jarvis Chimenes Pavão, foi assassinada a tiros, na noite desta segunda-feira, 12, em Pedro Juan Caballero, na fronteira do Paraguai com o Brasil. Conforme a polícia paraguaia, a morte está relacionada com a guerra entre facções brasileiras para o controle do tráfico na região.
Laura atuava também na defesa do traficante Marcelo Fernando Pinheiro Veiga, o ‘Marcelo Piloto’, ligado à facção carioca Comando Vermelho e preso no Paraguai desde dezembro de 2017.
A advogada foi atingida por oito disparos de pistola 9 mm quando saía de uma reunião, no centro da cidade, para atender a um telefonema. Ela foi emboscada quando se preparava para embarcar em seu SUV Range Rover, com placa brasileira do município paulista de Santana de Parnaíba.
Laura chegou a ser levada para um hospital, passou por uma cirurgia, mas não resistiu. Conforme o secretário de Segurança Pública de Pedro Juan Caballero, Teófilo Giménez, a suspeita é de que os assassinos sejam brasileiros. O crime aconteceu a 400 metros da linha de fronteira e os atiradores estavam a bordo de uma Toyota Hillux que teria sido furtada no Brasil.
Uma das hipóteses é de que a advogada tenha sido morta a mando de um de seus clientes.

A advogada Marleni Fantinel Ataíde Reis, de 68 anos, e seu marido, Marcio Ataíde Reis, de 46, foram assassinados a tiros e facadas, na noite de sábado, 3, quando passavam o fim de semana em Peruíbe, no litoral sul de São Paulo. O suspeito do crime, segundo a Polícia Civil, estava inconformado por ter perdido uma ação judicial em que Marleni atuou como advogada da parte contrária. Neste ano, ao menos cinco advogados foram assassinados no Estado, quase sempre em razão do exercício da profissão.
Marleni e o marido moravam em Santos, mas costumavam passar fins de semana na chácara, na Estrada Armando Cunha, em Peruíbe. O imóvel foi invadido pelo suspeito que, armado de espingarda, atirou nas costas de Marcio. A advogada tentou fugir, mas foi alcançada pelo agressor, que a atingiu com várias facadas. Vizinhos chamaram a polícia. A advogada foi levada com vida à Unidade de Pronto-Atendimento (UPA) de Peruíbe e chegou a ser transferida para o Hospital Regional de Itanhaém, na mesma região, porém, não resistiu. Antes de morrer, ela contou aos policiais quem era o autor dos crimes.
O suspeito, Antonio Ferreira Silva, de 61 anos, teve a prisão decretada, mas está foragido. Conforme a Polícia Civil, em agosto de 2011, a filha da advogada, Virgínia Conceição Fantinel Dias, vendeu um Fusca ano 1983 para Antonio, mas ele não transferiu o veículo para o seu nome. A vendedora passou a receber as multas de trânsito sofridas pelo homem e, sem acordo, entrou com ação na Justiça, tendo como advogada a própria mãe. Em junho, o juiz Alexandre das Neves condenou Silva a pagar R$ 2 mil a Virgínia por danos morais e a regularizar a documentação do carro, sob pena de multa diária de R$ 100. Conforme o relato da filha, ela e sua mãe passaram a receber ameaças de Silva.
A Ordem dos Advogados do Brasil (OAB) em Santos classificou o assassinato da filiada como uma afronta a toda a advocacia.

Lawyer Valéria Lucia dos Santos, 48, was handcuffed by policemen on Monday (10th) during a court hearing in Duque de Caxias, in the state of Rio de Janeiro.
Valéria and the magistrate started an argument because the lawyer asked to examine the defense’s petition. The magistrate denied the request and called the police.
People present in the hearing recorded videos, but they don’t give a complete picture of the discussion. The Brazilian Bar Association (OAB) said that Valéria was “absolutely correct” and the act was a severe violation of her rights. The Rio de Janeiro Court of Justice issued a statement saying that the magistrate asked for police reinforcements “in order to contain an attorney who was refusing to follow the magistrate’s directions.”
Valéria says she has felt prejudice at work and she doesn’t feel represented in the legal system. However, she avoids associating her case with racism.
OAB’s Rio de Janeiro chapter said it will sue the policemen and the magistrate. At the association’s request, the initial audience was annulled and reschedule for the 18th, when it will be presided by a judge – in Brazil, a magistrate is a lawyer who assist in smaller courts, holding preliminary hearings, but the final decision on a case is from a judge.
Read below what Valéria’s story, as told to Folha:
