Demobilized FARC militia chief assassinated in northern Colombia
written by Adriaan Alsema August 14, 2017
A commander of the FARC was assassinated Monday, endangering criminal investigations about the demobilized guerrilla groups criminal activities in a key drug trafficking corridor.
According to locals, Jesus Adan Mazo, a.k.a. Molina, was the FARCs militia chief of the 18th Front.
The victim was murdered around 1AM inside a home at only meters of the FARCs demobilization camp in Ituango, a municipality in the north of the Antioquia province.
Because the victim was a militia member, rather than a guerrilla, he had registered his demobilization, but is not allowed to stay inside the demobilization camp in the hamlet of Santa Lucia, the highly secured hamlet where hundreds of guerrillas members are held.
