Former DAS deputy director Jose Miguel Narvaez revealed that the Colombian intelligence agency has paramilitary links, and that DAS officers sold confidential information to narco-trafficking groups, El Espectador reported Thursday.
Narvaez claims that five years ago he personally notified then-Prosecutor General Mario Iguaran of the situation, but received “threatening emails” in return.
Former DAS officers Carlos Andres Moreno Roa, who has been linked to the paramilitary Centaur Bloc, and Edinson Arcila Cardona, stole reports linking top DAS officials to organized crime, and sold them to drug trafficker, Wilder Varela, alias “Jabon,” for COP150 million, according to Narvaez.
Narvaez also claims that Moreno Roa was ordered by then-DAS director Enrique Ariza to “kill several people.”
