Through social media, the US Embassy in Colombia reaffirms its solidarity with the Colombian government and people, following the terrorist attack in Ciudad Bolivar, in the south of Bogotá city.
On the morning of this Monday, March 28, the 33rd front of the dissidents of the disappeared FARC would have claimed responsibility for the attack carried out against the CAI of Arborizadora Alta.
The events occurred on the night of Saturday 26 of this same month, and resulted in the death of two minors and the impact on the health of other citizens who were nearby. Until now, the registry of the security cameras in the sector had been analyzed, which captured the exact moment of the accident, so that the culprit had been identified. The alleged criminal, the investigative team said, would have left the suitcase with explosives that later exploded.
Local media assured that the man named to plant the bomb is recognized as Anfo. According to the Bogotá Metropolitan Police, Anfo planted a bomb composed of ammonium nitrate and fuel. Patrolman Joan Camilo Fonseca, who had to be hospitalized for his injuries, the investigators say, would have seen the moment when the suitcase was abandoned. With this alias on the radar, the Minister of Defense, Diego Molano, the President, Iván Duque and the Mayor of Bogotá, Claudia López, announced that a $300 million reward was being offered to anyone who provided information necessary to clarify what happened information that would allow the intellectual and material perpetrators of the attack to be established.
In a video posted on social media, the commander of that front, recognized by the alias' Arley ', explained that the attack was a consequence of the celebration of the anniversary of the death of Manuel Marulanda Vélez, alias Tirofijo. The guerrilla fighter died on March 26, 2008.

Stalls were made on the road that leads from the Y de Astilleros to the city of Ocaña, at the height of the site known as La Curva. On the road that leads from Tibu to El Tarra, in the Versailles sector. On the road that leads from the district of La Gabarra to the city of Cúcuta. (...) Activation of an explosive charge in Ciudad Bolivar, Bogotá, against a police CAI”, he mentions in that clip confirming the participation of that armed group in the regrettable events that left 35 people injured in their wake.
