of the National Liberation Army (ELN) guerrilla in the area, the information added.\n\nThe bodies of the eight victims were found through the activation of urgent search mechanisms last April following the report that accounted for the summons of these people by the &#8216;Armando R\u00edos&#8217; first front of the Central General Staff (EMC), the largest dissident group of the FARC, which commits crimes in the area.\n\nAccording to the preliminary recognition by family members, these are Jes\u00fas Valero, Carlos Valero, Marivel Silva, Isaid G\u00f3mez, Maryuri H\u00e9rnandez, \u00d3scar Hern\u00e1ndez, James Caicedo, and Nixon Pe\u00f1aloza Chac\u00f3n.\n\nThe investigation established that on April 4, 2025, two of the victims were summoned by members of the aforementioned armed group and, three days later, the remaining six people were also called, in order to be &#8220;interrogated&#8221; about the possible presence or creation of another criminal group&#8221;, according to the Prosecutor&#8217;s Office.\n\nDays later, the eight people were allegedly moved to an abandoned lot.\n\nOn April 14th, the authorities of Calamar confirmed the disappearance of eight people in the hamlet of Agua Bonita Media.\n\nThe Prosecutor&#8217;s investigation also indicated that the &#8220;perpetrators apparently received the order from the inner circle of alias &#8216;Iv\u00e1n Mordisco&#8217;
