The denunciations of the victims, follow-up work and information collection led the Military Gaula (Anti-Extortion and Anti-Kidnapping Group) of the Ninth Brigade and CTI (Technical Investigations Corps) of the Prosecutor's Office to make possible the arrest of this individual in the city of Neiva.
Alias Cristian, through telephone calls, he contacted his victims, and intimidated them by posing as the head of finance and right-hand man of alias May, who would be part of the Isaías Pardo Bloc, in front of Ismael Ruiz, of the FARC.
Through this argument, alias Cristian demanded large sums of money in exchange for allowing farmers, contractors and merchants, among other people of the productive groups, to conduct their economic activities in the rural area of the municipalities of Huila.
The Military Gaula (Anti-Extortion and Anti-Kidnapping Group) reminds Huila people of the importance of the strategy "I don't pay, I denounce" as the best tool to confront the problem of extortion.
