Regarding the return of the paramilitary ‘Jorge 40’ to Colombia, Sanguino denounced that “in the extradition resolutions of these former paramilitary chiefs there is no mention that guarantees their return to the country“, So several simply do not appear.
According to him, “of the 32 AUC demobilized extradited, 12 have already returned to the country, 12 are still linked to justice and peace and of 8 do not know their judicial status“, Although he also warns that the Ministry of Justice and the Chancellery differ in one of the cases.
Noticias Caracol gave the list of the paramilitaries in question:
- Jhon Eiderlber Cano Correa, alias ‘Flechas’.
- Huber Aníbal Gómez Luna, alias ‘el Mello Rico’.
- Álvaro Antonio Padilla Meléndez, alias ‘Topo’.
- Fredy Castillo Carrillo, alias ‘Pinocho’.
- José Gregorio Terán Vásquez, alias ‘el Pipón’.
- Álvaro Antonio Padilla Redondo.
- Héctor Ignacio Rodríguez Acevedo, alias ‘Nacho’
- Jhon Alexander Posada Vergara, alias ‘Jhonny Cano’.
The congressman said that the issue It was due to an act of “perfidy that could have accompanied the decision of the president of the time by extraditing the holders of the truth about Colombian paramilitarism, ”referring to former president Álvaro Uribe and the peace process that he agreed with the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (AUC).
Sanguino regretted that the victims now face a state of uncertainty because the extradited “took advantage of a loophole in relation to the extradition treaty”To render accounts in the United States and leave his version pending and his responsibility in Colombia.
Consulates look for the extradited
The Foreign Ministry confirmed that “the extradition treaties signed by Colombia do not provide an obligation for the requesting state to return the extradited person once he has served his sentence“.

“We have asked the consulates to try to locate the information. In some cases, this is possible when convicted persons come to the United States to request some accompaniment, but in other cases it is a more complex task since it may be people who have obtained a protection measure that is reserved”, Explained the chancellor, Claudia Blum, quoted by the news.
The complaints revived criticism of the government for the pending extradition of former paramilitary chief Salvatore Mancuso for various procedural defects. A case that is in the hands of the US justice system and that could take a long time to resolve despite the fact that the AUC leader has already paid the penalty for which he was extradited.
This was the intervention of Sanguino in the debate of the second commission of the Senate:
