In a fragment of the video, broadcast by Caracol Radio, one of the women says: “The indigenous people of the National Liberal Army [Eln] we want to send a message of support and resistance to the indigenous minga, which is making its way through the national territory to demand what rights belong to the native peoples ”.

The audiovisual piece, according to the radio station, was published by the front of the leader alias’ Uriel, who a few weeks ago confirmed that they had infiltrated the September protests in Bogotá, and also noted that The “ranks” of the armed group are also made up of “indigenous people aware of the struggle and resistance”.

In the video, also reviewed by Blu Radio, one of the women appears in a boat and with a rifle; another, next to a communications equipment, and one last wields a long-range rifle, which is the one that speaks of support for the indigenous minga, which this Thursday began its journey to Bogotá.

The video appears just when the authorities have assured that armed groups are infiltrated in the demonstrations of the natives, and even have audios that would prove that leaders of the FARC dissidents are in the minga.

However, the Cauca Regional Indigenous Council (CRIC) rejected any links with armed groups, in a statement, and stated that it is asking for the recognition of their rights and respect for the lives of their leaders.
