Colombia Espionage Could be Taken to International Courts  http://www.insidecostarica.com/dailynews/2010/april/27/latinamerica10042704.htm

The presidential runner for the Liberal Party, Rafael Pardo, said on Monday he would resort to international courts if needed to clarify the internal political espionage issue in Colombia. If the national justice fails to play an active role in the matter, international courts must assess the situation, the political leader stated.Pardo rated as abominable wiretapping during the government of President Alvaro Uribe, and said they contravene people's intimacy and dignity.

El Espectador daily quoted the presidential runner as saying in a release addressed to the Attorney General that the Colombian law must redouble efforts to bring to light all details linked to the scandal.

In addition, Carlos Lozano, director of Voz daily, stressed the Colombian society has lost confidence on the Administrative Department of Security (DAS) after disclosures of wiretapping.Several social organizations insist on the need that the government clarifies persecutions of leaders.The controversy over internal espionage worsened even more last week when the Supreme Court of Justice announced it would analyze denunciations linked to the government.
