  • Prosecution related to the crime of an environmental leader in Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta 

A detention measure with imprisonment was issued against Deinstin Orlando García Arévalo, alias El Negro or Comandante Yesid, by a supervisory judge in Planeta Rica (Córdoba) who approved the evidence presented by a prosecutor of the Sectional Office in Magdalena.

Alias ​​el Negro or Comandante Yesid would be part of the criminal structure ‘Los Pachencas’, currently known as ‘Conquistadores de la Sierra’. As head of the hitmen, he allegedly ordered one of his men to assassinate the environmental leader. 

For this crime, the Office of the Attorney General charged and prosecuted Adán Romero Pérez, alias El Grande or Chuky, and Alcides Antonio Moreno. Likewise, due to the death of the defendant, the investigation against the top leader of this organization, alias 80, who was killed in an operation by the public force, on June 16, 2020, precluded.  

  • Displacement of a person in process of reincorporation in Caquetá 

A prosecutor of the Special Itinerant Group brought alias Grasoso, an alleged member of the Residual Organized Armed Group (Gaor) E-62, before a supervisory judge, as the alleged responsible for intimidating and displacing a person in the process of reincorporation.  

The facts took place on October 26, 2019 in rural area of Tailandia, Unión Peneya, in La Montañita (Caquetá). 

Alias ​​Grasoso will face charges for threats, forced displacement and aggravated conspiracy to commit a crime. 

  • Conviction for an attack against a relative of person in process of reincorporation
