Between December 31, 2001 and October 13, 2003 during the government of Eduardo Fellner of the Partido Justicialista in Jujuy Province, Carrizo Salvadores was named Chief of Police. During that period, several left-wing militants would end up detained under orders of Carrizo Salvadores. Seven of the 24 detainees were charged with causing damage to property, causing serious injuries and resisting arrest. However during his period as police chief, a militant, Cristian Gabriel Ibáñez was killed. The head of Regional Unit Four, commissioner Raúl Aparicio, would claim that the deceased had been imprisoned for "having participated in a fight." According to The official version of the Jujuy police, Ibáñez (a militant of the CCC) was found hanged in his cell at the 39th Police Station in the Jujuy city of Libertador General San Martin after being arrested for "drunkenness and disorderly behaviour". The reported suicide of Ibáñez emboldened hundreds of citizens to take to the streets in the early hours of October 10, 2003 clashing with police, destroying the police station and setting fire to two trucks, a car and an ambulance. While returning from visiting his girlfriend, 19 year-old Luis Marcelo Cuellar, stopped to observe the clashes that were taking place near the 39th Police Station and was shot in the stomach. He was rushed to the Ledesma Clinic but was pronounced dead on arrival. His aunt, Elida, claimed that Cuellar did not participate in the street protests. As a result, Carrizo resigned from his position in order to facilitate with the investigations taking place following the Libertador General San Martín violent street protests.
