COIn June 2026, reports emerged from the Colombian police regarding Daneidy Barrera Rojas, known as 'Epa Colombia,' who was incarcerated at the Carabineros School in Bogotá. According to an internal report by Major Luz Amparo Pinto Rivera, a prison officer observed inflammation in Barrera’s lips and small bruises on her face during a routine visit. The report suggests she had undergone an aesthetic procedure involving fillers in her cheeks, chin, and buttocks, possibly performed by a visitor during a visit on May 31, 2026. Another inmate, Margareth Chacón, reported that Barrera experienced severe pain and fever after the procedure. The report raises concerns about unauthorized medical procedures within the facility and potential violations of prison regulations.
