As reported in the regional newspaper La Opinion, the judicial officer was in the lodging with a woman, when he, apparently, suffered a heart attack. After the death, they notified the authorities of the fact, so from the Metropolitan Police of Cúcuta they sent several patrols to the place and units of the Inter-institutional Homicide Brigade (Brinho) who began the respective technical inspection, reported in the Norte de Santander newspaper. In the magazine Semana they reported that initially there was the hypothesis that it was a homicide, but after the first inquiries, this possibility was ruled out. They also recalled in that communication medium that the director of the forensic entity also worked as a private doctor, where he provided alternative therapies to people with chronic pain conditions. While on the Blu Radio station they reported that the official's companion is assisting the inquiry to find out her version of the death of Montagut.

Tragic Sunday in San Juan: the reason for the death of the motorcyclist who died in Rivadavia is known
September 26, 2022
During the early hours of last Sunday, one occurred in which a motorcyclist identified as Juan Carlos Tapia, 38, died after losing control of his motorcycle and hitting the cordon of the bike path in Rivadavia. After the police, special crimes and UFI 2º officers were present, who began to investigate the reasons for the death, it was guessed that the biker lost his life as a result of the impact with the cordon and the pavement, but the result still had to be awaited of the autopsy. Hours later, when the body was transferred to the judicial morgue for an autopsy, it was discovered that Tapia died before falling off the motorcycle. According to investigators, the man would have suffered an acute myocardial infarction which caused the imbalance of the Gilera Tunning 110 cc that he was driving. Although toxicological tests are still awaited to find out if the driver was intoxicated or not, they rule out that another vehicle was involved in the accident. The prosecutor in the case argued that beyond the fact that it was a traffic accident, Tapia died from a natural death and not from the road accident.
