Colombia’s chief prosecutor said Tuesday that investigators have found evidence between rebel group FARC was involved in the attack on a former Minister in Bogota earlier this month.
“We have some well-consolidated evidence through which we can establish a connection between the attack with the car bomb [earlier that morning] and the attack on [former Interior Minister] Fernando Londoño that were set up by the FARC” on May 15, Prosecutor general Eduardo Montealegre said at a press conference.
Montealegre refused to accuse the FARC before, claiming there was no sufficient evidence to link the rebels to the one failed car bomb attack and the bomb attack on the former minister that killed two and injured dozens.
Londoño and his political ally, former President Alvaro Uribe, have insisted since the attack that the FARC was the culprit.
