Jesus
Adan Mazo, or “Molina,” has been killed after being attacked and
shot by a group of armed men in the town of Ituango, near a FARC
concentration zone.
Mazo
— whose involvement in the peace process between the Colombian
government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia was pivotal
to the signing of the peace agreement — was shot at 1:00 am Monday
morning while residing in a house near the Santa Lucia school in
Antioquia.
“According
to the neighbors, the armed men removed him from the house and shot
him three times, enough to kill him. This is the second ex-combatant
of the FARC that is assassinated in Ituango,” said a statement
from the FARC zone in Ituango.
“The
death of Molina happens just a day before the end of the Transitional
Standardization Zones and the beginning of the Territories of
Training and Reincorporation, which makes the residents of the
concentration zones fearful since they consider this 'a very clear
and fatal message for the process'," the statement
continued.
