Colombia’s ELN rebels removed from Interpol’s wanted persons website

Colombia’s ELN rebels removed from Interpol’s wanted persons website
Posted by Stephen Gill on Mar 30, 2016

Leaders of the ELN, Colombia’s second largest rebel group to announce peace talks, have been removed from Interpol’s list of internationally sought crime suspects.

The radical leftist rebels have long been on Interpol’s Red Notice board because of their group’s involvement in drug trafficking, extortion and kidnapping.

However, Colombia’s Prosecutor General apparently has removed the names of the ELN leadership, who earlier on Wednesday announced the beginning of talks in Ecuador.

The International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) is the worlds largest policing organisation and facilitates co-operation on matters of security between 190 countries.
