The Prosecutor General's Office announces it will begin investigations into the possible false demobilization of more than 850 AUC members in 2003, Radio Santa Fe reported Monday.

"We are already taking action on the matter," said Nestor Armando Novoa, the national director of prosecutors.

Former paramilitary commander Freddy Rendon Herrera, alias "El Aleman," told El Tiempo over the weekend that the demobilization of over 850 paramilitaries in Medellin in 2003 was a farce.

El Aleman, the brother of captured drug lord "Don Mario," accused government officials such as former Peace Commissioner Luis Carlos Restrepo and criminal organizations such as the Office of Envigado of taking civilians from communas around Medellin and paying them to surrender along with members of the AUC bloc, "Cacique Nutibara." The bloc was led by extradited paramilitary leader, "Don Berna."

Serious D.U.'ers only had to read the news to know the "demobilization" was, by all means, a sham. We knew it, and said it years ago. Done only for appearances. Obviously.
