Fifty-seven soldiers who have trapped in prisoners in captured Colombia from the weekend was exempt from military surgery, said Colombian defense minister.
Minister Pedro Sanchez said no kick was fired in what he called “Operation Justice”.
The soldiers were seized in the Vebel Region, the Rebel Group group, which is engaged in production and trade in cocaine.
Mr. Sanchez blamed the EMC for what he described as the soldiers of “kidnapping”, saying that the locals seized them ordered to do the rebels.
The Colombian army said that the incident launched the arrest of the suspect EMC rebel on Saturday.
As soldiers are ready to be suspected by the mountainous area, they were surrounded by more than 100 people.
The second military unit was then seized next day even greater group of locals, General Erick Rodriguez Colombian army said.
He was not the first time that members of the security forces detained the locals, but the size of a group of soldiers was unusually great.
In past similar cases, locals negotiated with humanitarian groups and trapped soldiers were published relatively quickly.
But this time, those who refused 57 refused to talk to any goal-be-be-Belgrade, driving the distribution of additional troops to the area to release the trapped soldiers.
Very armed reinforcements are distributed to the area and arrested 20 people, said the Minister of Defense.
According to the army estimates, more than 90% of the inhabitants of the area depends on the cultivation of the bushes of the shrub – a plant used to make cocaine – for a living.
Therefore, the presence of soldiers in this area is often considered a direct threat.
The region was also established by the presence of several armed groups that extort farmers and land owners and are engaged in illegal mining and cocaine trade.
