A/HRC/4/48 page 27 4. On 2 August in La Jagua del Pilar (Guajira), the death of an indigenous Wiwa was attributed to members of “Rondón” Group of the Tenth Brigade. On 11 June in Pasca (Cundinamarca), four peasant farmers were killed in an action attributed to members of the army’s No. 39 Battalion. On 24 July in El Dovio (Valle), members of No. 14 Mobile Brigade allegedly carried out the extrajudicial execution of a peasant whom they had forced to alight from a bus. 5. In several cases of extrajudicial execution, the scene of the crime was allegedly tampered with or justice was obstructed. In some cases the soldiers dressed their victims in clothing which made them appear to be guerrillas. In others, they engaged in activities at the scene of the crime which should have been left to the judicial authorities. On 14 February in Nechí (Antioquia), the body of one of two peasants killed in extrajudicial executions attributed to men from Special Highways Plan No. 5 was found dressed in military uniform. However, the clothing had no bullet holes corresponding to the dead man’s wounds. 6.

On 14 March on a road in Florida (Valle), it was alleged that a person was wounded by police officers and died without receiving any assistance from them. 9. Other murders with characteristics of extrajudicial executions were committed against human rights defenders, trade unionists and political leaders. Among the victims of such crimes were Edgar Fajardo Marulanda, a university professor and member of the Colombian Communist Party and Polo Democrático Alternativo, who died in Bogotá on 1 September, and Alejandro Uribe, a miners’ leader, who died in Santa Rosa (Magdalena Medio) on 19 September. 10. Human rights defenders, unionists and political leaders also received death threats. In Bogotá on 8 May, the Lawyers’ Collective “José Alvear Restrepo” received a threatening message by electronic mail, the threat also being directed against the members of other civilian organizations such as the Latin American Institute for Alternative Legal Services (ILSA), the Central Workers’ Organization (CUT), the Colombian National Indigenous Organization (ONIC) and the Colombian Platform for Human Rights, Democracy and Development. The message discredited the work of members of these organizations and invited them to align themselves with government policy. 11.
