Colombian authorities arrested Luis Fernando Mendez, alias “Didier,” who was one of the guerrillas that made up FARC leader “Alfonso Cano’s” security ring.
Didier was arrested in the southern Colombian department of Huila and transfered to Colombia’s capital city Bogota.
The FARC guerrilla had reportedly taken over the leadership of Alfonso Cano’s security ring after alias “Araceli,” who previously held the role, was arrested several weeks ago in the Cauca department.
The Colombian army is carrying out several offensives in the mountainous area on the border of the Tolima and Cauca departments in an effort to locate the FARC’s number one.
