In the car they moved Telma Deleise Barria Finch, the consul in Colombia; Pedro Cantillo, 62, diplomatic attaché, and Manala García Lozada, lawyer for the consulate.
These last two are missing, but the lifeless body of
Barria Pinzón, 60 years old.
The affected people were traveling by car on a road in the La Alto Guadual village but the force of the waters ended up dragging the car that was left in the middle of the waters of the Frío River, a mighty tributary that every winter generates floods and damages in houses and crops in the rural area of Rivera.
“Foreign Ministry regrets the death of the Consul of Panama in Colombia and her husband. We send our solidarity to his family, colleagues and friends at this difficult time, “said the Colombian government.
Aid agencies have been searching for the other missing since last night.
