More security for ‘Don Mario’ family after 7 killed in massacre

More security for ‘Don Mario’ family after 7 killed in massacre
Dec 15, 2014 posted by Piotr Wojciak



Colombian authorities over the weekend vowed to increase the security of family members of captured paramilitary drug lord “Don Mario” after several of his cousins were found executed in a massacre of seven.

Among the seven victims were two minors and three women. All seven have been killed with a shot to the head, the medical examiner’s office announced on Monday.

So far the authorities had been able to establish a connection between some of the victims and “Don Mario,” the alias of former paramilitary commander and drug lord Daniel Rendon.

Don Mario was one of Colombia’s most prominent drug traffickers between 2006 and 2010 and is the suspected founder of neo-paramilitary group “Los Urabeños,” currently the country’s most powerful drug trafficking organization according to authorities.
