Delivered remains of victims of executions extrajudicial
The remains had been found some time ago but only now could make identification through DNA testing .

Saturday 11 September 2010

The skeletal remains of six men killed by the military several years ago and presented then falsely as criminals killed in combat were given on Saturday at his family in Barranquilla , prosecutors said .Hernando Castañeda , coordinator of the Rights Unit Human , said in a telephone conversation that the six bones " were found some time ago but only now could make identification through DNA testing . " The official said since the funeral La Paz of Barranquilla proof that the six men were summarily executed " is that there are several soldiers convicted " for these acts.

Martha Diaz , leader of the Association of Families United for Single- Pain ( AFUSODO ) , which bring together the relatives of victims of extrajudicial killings by the military in Barranquilla , said by telephone that his son Douglas Alberto Tavera , 27 , was "killed on April 2, 2006 and presented as a chief of 59th front the FARC's "in rural area of San Juan del Cesar , La Guajira. "We already have seven ( military) sentenced to were a plea bargain and confessed to the bare ( or boy ) was not partisan , "said Diaz.

He said the charge of murdering his son was the retired army major Julio Cesar Parga , extradited in March 2009 the United States on drug charges .

1. Extradited by the U.S. to get him away from Colombian prosecutors! Why?
(The man he charged with murdering his son is) "...retired army major Julio Cesar Parga , extradited in March 2009 the United States on drug charges . 'It seems worth a trial for the drug (but not for) the life of a citizen,' he added . 'We ask that Parga (be sent back) to Colombia because (our son's life) is more important than drug trafficking ,' said Diaz...

"Julio Cesar Parga's lawyer Parga in Colombia , Jose Fernando Duarte, said by telephone that his client is innocent of the accusations that are made of extrajudicial killings. 'It is very easy to accuse someone who can not defend himself because he is not in the country,' said Duarte, who said his client Julio Cesar Parga's trial in the United States for drug trafficking will be in January next year."


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

Gawd, what nerve this lawyer has! And where will he be when this drug case is completely sealed, putting his client forever out of the reach of Colombian prosecutors--as has been happening with all of these 'extraditions'? I presume he knows what the deal is, with these Bushwhack "extraditions." SECRET extraditions, in the middle of the night, giving the Colombia prosecutors no notice. It is one of the most egregious cases of U.S. interference in another country's justice system that I've ever heard of, and likely had motives that we cannot see--for instance, covering up U.S. military or U.S. military 'contractor' involvement in murdering civilians in Colombia, or part of the CIA protection given to Bush Jr pal, Alvaro Uribe, the narco-thug pResident of Colombia. Could this lawyer be ignorant of WHY his client, accused of murder in Colombia, is being tried on drug charges in the U.S.? Not likely. Who is paying him, I wonder.
