The Army has dismissed Captain Ignacio Zúñiga, head of the company to which the two soldiers belonged who drowned on December 21. Along with him, a lieutenant and a sergeant have also been charged.

The three commanders, according to the indictment, did not take the necessary measures to preserve the safety of the soldiers. The widow of Corporal Miguél Ángel Andújar, 34, one of the two deceased, asked the Minister of Defense, Margarita Robles, that he be suspended from employment, a request also raised by the parents of soldier Carlos León, 24, the other drowned. The military judge has asked the parties to rule on whether to elevate the case to the central courts, upon appreciating signs of responsibility in commanders above the captain who would be outside their jurisdiction.
