COLOMBIA: Paramilitary “black eagles” poised to swoop down on the press
Send
They use various code names, pseudonyms
and trademarks. One day it could be the
“United Self-Defence Groups of Colombia”
(with AUC as its acronym) or the “Free Colombia
Self-Defence Groups, United List.” Another day
it might be “Free Colombia Democratic Front” or
“Social Front for Peace.” When they want to
clearly announce their colours and carry out targeted
murders or threats against peasants,
unionists, human rights activists and sometimes
even former comrades-in-arms, they call themselves
the “Black Eagles.”
