Kevin Arrigui, young man stabbed inside the National University, broke the silence, spoke about the facts and gave details

Kevin Arrigui, a student representative at Colombia's National University, released a video statement responding to accusations by the Sintraunal union after he was stabbed during an incident at the university's Bogotá campus. The union claimed Arrigui carried sharp weapons and attacked someone, but he denied these allegations, stating his presence was to remove a banner from a political group with which he has ideological disagreements. Arrigui explained that tensions began due to his opposition to a previous university strike, which led to the cancellation of classes for over 13,000 students and increased public spending. He also alleged that members of the union had discriminated against him based on his origin in the Huila department and subjected him to harassment and legal pressure. Arrigui requested access to security footage to clarify the sequence of events and determine responsibility for the attack.
