Colombian Police Dismantle 5 Car Bombs in 3 Days
Colombian police deactivated a car bomb Monday, bringing the total number of such devices found and dismantled to five in the past three days, news reaching here reported Monday.

"Fulfilling the government's Democratic Security policy, we have deactivated another car bomb found in a home garage in San Vicente de Caguan," Colonel Carlos Zapata, head of the police in the southern department of Caqueta, told media Monday. The car had been loaded with 50kg of ammonium phosphate explosive.

The town of San Vicente de Caguan has once been a place to hold talks with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), the nation's largest armed rebel group. The Democratic Security plan is formulated by the Colombian government and financed by the United States to wipe out the FARC militarily.
