THEY ARE BAAAACK,WAIT NO,THEY NEVER STOPPED OR ENDED...5 Colombian soldiers accused of 'false positives' murders http://colombiareports.com/colombia-news/news/19770-5-colombian-soldiers-accused-of-false-positives-murders.html

Five Colombian soldiers are accused of murdering protected persons, illegal possession of defense weapons, and bearing arms for private use of public force in a new case of "false positives" in northwest Colombia.According to the human rights prosecutor, one officer, two sub-officers, and two soldiers of the Army's 31st Rifle Battalion allegedly killed two peasants in the northwest rural area of Valdivia, Antioquia and then presented them as FARC guerrillas killed in combat.

The prosecution said that the military report stated that the two victims were insurgents who were carrying two handguns and a grenade.Ballistics tests could, however, prove that the two suspected guerrillas were actually "farmers in the area and had no ties to the insurgency," newspaper El Espectador reported.The evidence collected from witnesses and ballistics experts, among others by the investigating prosecutor has made him reject the notion of an armed confrontation.
