Neighbors of the Water Park in Bucaramanga woke up this Monday and noticed that the cambuches that the migrants had built on the side of the road that leads to Morrorico were no longer there.
This newsroom learned that about five buses transferred 100 migrants to Venezuela and the authorities ordered the cleaning of the area where the Cambodians were.
Some of the migrants who continue in the sector assured that, after the departure of the buses, other foreigners were relocated by the authorities.
The decision of the humanitarian transfer was being studied after the complaints of constant fights, apparently due to micro-trafficking and the agglomeration without sanitary measures.
It was precisely a viral video in which three people are seen fighting with a dagger in hand, in the area of changers and the subsequent capture of two of those involved, which expedited the transfer.
According to the Secretary of the Interior of Bucaramanga, José David Cavanzo, the mobilization of migrants is part of the humanitarian return plan that the municipal administration has with Migración Colombia. “At the end of this week we will give details of the plan that we are executing,” he said.
However, Vanguardia learned that the return operation was carried out almost silently because neither the neighboring country nor Cúcuta are receiving buses with migrants.
“If more migrants arrive in the city, we will have no way to move them,” said a source who asked for his name to be reserved.
It is probable, therefore, that this is one of the last transfers to be made to the border.
Faced with this issue, the Secretary reiterated that all statements will be given at the end of the first week of July.
For the moment, and according to residents of the sector, the outlook changed drastically in the area despite the fact that there are still migrant camps in the Parque del Agua plaza.
