Results concerning the attacks committed against indigenous communities

The Prosecutor’s Office clarified the murder of the former coordinator of the Indigenous Guard, Jose Alveiro Camayo Guetio, perpetrated on January 24, in a rural area of ​​Buenos Aires.

Due to this act that was attributed to the Jaime Martínez Mobile column, two arrest warrants were issued against Jaimes Alberto Peña Pisacue, alias Beto, and a minor who would be the alleged perpetrators of this crime.

This column would also be responsible for the attack committed against the Indigenous Guard in this municipality, in which one person died and another one was seriously injured, on January 14.

The investigation allowed the identification of two alleged members of Farc dissents to whom arrest warrants were issued.

Concerning the attacks committed against Dagoberto Ramos Column 

The Prosecutor’s Office prosecuted Ferney Yafue Hilamo, alias Franco, leader of the Dagoberto Ramos mobile column, who was arrested on January 17.

‘Franco’, would be responsible for the car bomb attack carried out in the municipality of Corinto, on March 26, 2021, in which  43 people were injured, as well as, three homicides of human rights defenders and three people in process of reincorporation.

The evidence shows that this column would be responsible for the attack against an Army truck in Corinto on January 12 and the attack committed against Police members in Santander de Quilichao on January 23, where two of them were seriously injured.

Hard blow against the command (Comando Coordinador de Occidente)

He would be in charge of an armed component of more than 1,000 men in Cauca and Nariño, and as head of the command, he would be responsible for several homicides and attacks that occurred in the department.
