Police announced that evidence found in the computers of dead FARC commander 'Raul Reyes' prove that the guerrilla organization has networks in 17 countries, preparing "attacks on Colombians".
National Police Commissioner Oscar Naranjo said that information on 'Raul Reyes' computers was "indisputable, irrefutable proof that the FARC have a presence in 17 countries in the world".
Naranjo said that thanks to the information uncovered, six judicial processes against the FARC could be set in motion in countries in Europe and the Americas.
He added that Colombian police were working with European task force Europol in the fight against international terrorism.

... It is important to know that this is a photo from an important documentary, named Guerrilla Girl . It deals with Isabel (pictured above with the pistol), a young Colombian woman who leaves the university to join the FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia). I would recommend the movie to anyone seeking to understand the human face of the Colombian revolution. Seen along side other important movies which deal with the reality of guerrilla wars and civil war in Latin America, for example, Innocent Voices (Voces Inocentes) by director Luis Mandoki and screenwriter Oscar Torres, based on the real life experiences of Torres, it takes one into the reality of war and allows one a counter-point to mainstream perspectives (some call them propaganda) which distort and manipulate history and current affairs to stigmatize the struggles of people against governments representing elite interests, interests generally aligned with and often financed by U.S. interests. Guerrilla Girl is by the Dutch filmmaker Frank Piasechi Poulsen. |
