Jardel Sachi Barbieri was reportedly caught in flagrante delicto in May 2000 by military police and taken to a deserted place where about 10 officers tied his head and foot to a tree and kicked and punched him for 40 minutes while questioning him about alleged accomplices. He was reportedly then taken to a riverbank with his hands and ankles tied and threatened with being thrown in the river. In July 2000 he was reportedly transferred to the DEPATRI jail. He was taken to the front office and later on to the parlatorio where he was allegedly beaten throughout the night with metal bars. The officers reportedly put a revolver in his mouth. It is believed that he finally signed a nota de culpa. He was reportedly taken to a forensic doctor by three officers who remained with him and did not allow him to speak confidentially with the doctor. Afterwards he was allegedly punched, kicked and hit with iron bars by 10 police officers in the parlatorio of the jail for about five hours. 328.
