Release them now! Soldiers kidnapped by the GAO Eln
The Command of the Quiron Task Force, military unit of the Eighth Division of the National Army, reports:
1. Denunciations will be filed before national and international organizations, against the Organized Armed Group, GAO ELN, for the kidnapping of our soldiers Luifer Mejia Beltrán and Fernando Urrego Rayo, who were traveling as civilians and in a state of defenselessness to enjoy the plan of morale, rest and well-being with their families in their cities of origin.
2. This reprehensible act is a violation of human rights and violation of the provisions of international humanitarian law and a serious crime classified as a crime against humanity.
3. The Eastern War Front of the ELN is responsible for the safety and good physical condition of our two soldiers.
4. We will continue to provide support and accompaniment to the families of our military, because the kidnapping generates anguish, sadness and desolation.
