in Colombia
BOGOTA - A smear
campaign aimed at
discrediting and putting
the PCC (Colombian
Communist Party) into
question has been
launched, PCC weekly La
Voz editor Carlos Lozano
denounced on Thursday.
Lozano said this policy
includes an
investigation launched
by the General
Attorney's Office into
alleged PCC links to
FARC (the Revolutionary
Armed Forces of
Colombia.)
In statements to CM&
news show, Lozano denied
the existence of any
evidence to indict him
and described this
campaign as an open
political persecution by
the govermment through
the General Attorney's
Office.
He added that the
Executive is trying to
silence the opposition,
using tricks and false
accusations to hide the
truth about what is
really happening in the
country. |
