Army troops captured a man identified as a finance chief for the Calarcá dissidents in a rural area of La Macarena.
The capture took place during a joint operation by the Armed Forces, National Police and Attorney General’s Office in the department of Meta. The detainee, known by the alias ‘Mono Huevo’, had an active arrest warrant and was accused of managing illicit funds for the dissident group.
The National Army reported that the individual played a key role in obtaining and administering resources for the Calarcá dissidents. “This subject had an active arrest warrant. With this military operation the criminal networks of this residual organized armed group are weakened,” the institution stated.
Authorities said the result affects the illegal organization’s financing capacity and reaffirmed the commitment to continue operations to ensure security in vulnerable regions.
