Seven found murdered in southwest Colombia village


by Adriaan Alsema July 3, 2018



The bodies of seven people were found in a coca-growing community in southwest Colombia days after locals were warned about an impending “social cleansing.”

Local authorities told media on Tuesday that the bodies were found alongside a road in the municipality of Argelia, Cauca.

Government Secretary Maribel Perafan, the official in charge of security in the Cauca province, told W Radio that the bodies were dumped in the rural community.

Some of the victims were tortured before they were executed, according to the authorities.
