3. Well, well, Castrillón is under investigation for "false positives"


None other than El Tiempo is reporting today that Castrillón is being investigated in the murders of four "false positives" in 2004.

The good colonel was to have shown up to testify in a Colombian court this past Dec. 8 and 9. He was a no-show because the army told the prosecutor Castrillón was on a mission at the OAS.

Castrillón, according to the charges against him, signed off on an operation that resulted in the deaths of four young men, later presented as guerrillas.

El Tiempo story (sp)

--------------------

Odd spin to the story by El Tiempo. Main emphasis is on uribito's OAS ambassador APPOINTING the colonel, while backing into the charges against him.
