A new judicial inspection carried out by agents of the Technical Investigation Corps (CTI) was carried out this Tuesday, December 9 in Bogotá, as part of the process that seeks to clarify the institutional connections mentioned in the files found in the possession of alias ‘Calarcá’, head of the 36th front of the FARC dissidents.
The investigators entered the Department of Control of Trade in Weapons, Ammunition and Explosives, as well as the Superintendency of Surveillance and Private Security.
This technical visit is in addition to the procedures already carried out at the Indumil facilities and at the Army Personnel Command, also mentioned in the documents and devices seized from the leader.
The actions were ordered by a prosecutor delegated to the Supreme Court, with the intention of collecting as much evidence as possible to advance the investigation involving officials and alleged facilitators of the illegal structure.

In parallel, the Prosecutor’s Office continues with the forensic review of computers, cell phones, hard drives and memories seized in July 2024 during a military checkpoint in Anorí, Antioquia, where a caravan of members of the self-proclaimed General Staff of the dissidents was mobilized.
The preliminary findings include names of several companions of alias Calarcá, as well as direct mentions of General Juan Miguel Huertas Herrera, head of the Army Personnel Command (Coper), indicated in the files as an alleged link or facilitator.
His conduct is now a matter of verification to establish whether there are sufficient reasons to charge him.
Another official under scrutiny is Wilmar de Jesús Mejía, director of Strategic Intelligence of the DNI, also referred to in internal communications of the illegal structure.
According to the documents, these people would have participated in efforts to promote mobility, contacts and even the creation of a security company that would protect weapons and personnel from dissidents.
The investigations are advancing amid concerns about a possible infiltration scheme into State institutions, alliances with illegal actors and alleged political financing.
