The men were located via intelligence collected by Colombia’s national police, and authorities have since identified one of the two as being alias “Tierra Mala,” a FARC leader in charge of logistics for the guerrilla organization.
Police arrested the men while they were in the process of installing the improvised explosive devices inside a vehicle, which has been confiscated by officials.
